A co-worker of mine had his last day today. He is moving on to a better job with better pay after being with this company for 2 years. Here is an excerpt of his last email that he sent out to everyone before he left for good:
“It’s been an absolute blast pretending to do work with you guys over the past two years. I couldn’t ask for a better group of people to work with and I really appreciate getting to know you all.”
He was very honest about the “pretending to work” part. The position he held while he was here can be very slow at times and the truth is he spent a lot of time being bored when all his work was already done. Very rarely was he really busy. He hopes that his next job won’t be a culture shock if he gets bombarded with work coming from a job where there barely was any. Either way, everyone must move on at some point if they are not completely satisfied with their current job and hopefully that move will be a step forward in the right direction for their career.
What do you think is better? A slow job which is not very challenging or one that keeps you engaged for a majority of the time you are working, but can be stressful at times? I prefer the latter.
