If You'll Just Sign Here...

"Hmm....thanks, but no thanks. You can keep your large salary, full benefits, vacations paid, 5 year job security offer because frankly, this spring chicken is just not interested."


Well, at least I have a better offer. Oh wait...

This is similar to the opening biography to some mega-millionaire, American dream story. Turns down a great offer to pursue a riskier, more demanding, possibly lower paying but hopefully with a higher reward position. However, not in my case. Sure, the risk is there, it's lower paying, but I don't see the higher rewards funneling in anytime soon. Isn't that the whole point of taking such a big step, leap, err...plummet?

Strangely, I feel liberated and peaceful. Maybe I should have done this sooner.
