Change is Good...isn't it? - Mommies Drink
Jennifer Pitt

Change is Good…isn’t it?

Today is my last day at my current position; tomorrow I start a new, higher position in a different location with the same corporation. So, all the feelings of leaving old and starting new and not liking change and excited about new opportunities are all jumbling together into a big mixed bag of glee that I no longer have to commute with my current commute buddies. Instead, I get to commute with a bunch of strangers who would sooner throw you under the train than help you on it.

It feels like I have a lot going on these days. I am a routine kind of girl, and having a baby certainly upended that. I am getting used-ish to always being on my toes, and wasn’t doing too bad as long as everything else was stable. Now it all feels up in the wind again-I am excited about the new work, apprehensive about returning to a location I chose to leave previously. It’s all good change, I mean jesus…I have been trying to land this position every time it came open for the last three years. Give my head a shake, right?

Thing is, I was happy: have my girl, have our house, vehicle, good job with a great boss who was easy to work for and amazingly supportive. Before I went on maternity leave, I was given the option of coming to this location permanently (the girl who would cover me wanted to stay there, I wanted to come here) so I grabbed the chance. Closer to home, simplified life. Happy me, happy life.

This job is more money, and the next obvious career move. I definitely can not see myself in my current position the rest of my life; I believe in progress, I just don’t initially like it. Especially when I feel like I sold my happiness for a bigger paycheck, when I obviously sold it for a better career. A career that could quite possibly steer me back to exactly where I want to be.

So, what’s my problem, exactly?? Change is good…isn’t it?

  1. Change is good. But that doesn’t mean it isn’t scary as hell. You’re trading sure for unsure, and that includes the personal relationships that you’ve formed at work. It’s tough.

    You’ll do great.

  2. Yes I agree change is good, scary, nerve wracking, and uncomfortable. At least it is for me, I’ve had to go through a lot of changes in the last few years. I’ve moved 4 times in my husbands career and have now lives in 4 provinces. Every time I know I have to move it hurts my heart. I grow, change, and adapt with each job transfer but I still feel growing pains. I wish you all the best with your new job, and enjoy your new adventures.
