Release: Continued
Well, this has been one of the better days I have had at work here. I have written a letter to Mr. O (currently in the US) informing him that I plan on resigning and I spoke to my rather surprised bosses about the matter.
It seems that they may try to come up with a counter-offer or something to keep me here, I hope that they do because it will feel mightily good to turn it down. The job I have committed to was offered to me by my old boss, Ian at Nifsan (which Nifco has divested of since I worked there last) in Sales. It's not the most glamourous position out there, but the comission is attractive, and I can admit that for all the stereotyping that the members of the White Shoe Brigade recieve, the potential for earning money in real estate sales is not something I am going to sneeze at.
At least not yet.
Once I hear back from Mr. O, I plan on handing in my offical letter to the company and kicking off my one month's notice. I imagine this will be setting a rather large cat amongst the pigeons in our quiet little office, but I guess that's all part of the fun.
At this stage, I am aiming to be back in Australia sometime during the week starting February the 15th, so stay tuned.
