On Promotions and Resignations

I could not find a way to get sleep so I decided get whatever is bothering out of my head. Monday was the one of the longest days at work. Since last week, I have been bothered by making a decision to either stay or leave. Eventually I came to a decision since the company needed a response. My response was long overdue. They expected it Friday last last week but I was too disturbed to give an answer.

Going thru the motions of things at the office, it was hard letting them know the decision. It was a mixture of feelings both negative and positive. I decided to pass it at 10am, but moved to 1pm, then again to 3pm and finally at 4pm, there was no other way to let them know but to do it. I was talked to, given some options to really think about my decision before moving on to something else.

This Tuesday, promotions were up. Actually, promotions in the office are moving fast. Some are rewarded in 3 years to already be an Senior DE. Promotion to another position is another experience I would like to have. Now that the next level is an officer position, responsibilities are greater, and the challenge is higher. I can wait for this to happen (in the next couple of months maybe) or move on to something else. Its messing with my mind, and it becomes harder as the end comes.

And one thing came to mind after the announcement. Buti na lang pinasa ko bago nangyari ang promotion.

Last before I go to sleep, I'd like to congratulate all who got promoted especially those who I have spent a lot of time working with (Gerald, Ryan, James and Cabs). You guys deserve it, and One Big Fight to you guys.
