I don't believe that you have been "content" to stay where you are or that you haven't tried to better your situation. You made a professional goal for yourself and it made sense: work for the same employer for three years so you don't start your professional life with the reputation of being a person who changes jobs like underpants. At least that was what I understood to be your reasoning; and as a person who has changed jobs like underpants, I thought it was admirable. I think two years would be OK, but I digress. ALSO, you HAVE been seeking change, but the reality is you have come to the end of your options. You have tried on numerous occasions to reason with the man in charge and he has been "on the green" mentally and not open to your suggestions. You recently laid it all out for him in a very bold move to SEEK change and improve your level of happiness without finding a new job. As you have already identified within yourself, your greatest strength is also your greatest weakness (your loyalty to your job) – a dichotomy that is not easy to reconcile. I am very sorry your are unhappy, and I know you have been for a while. But you have tried to make the best of it, and if it's taken you longer than you think it should have for you to reach this point where you are actually looking for another job, its only because you've given your efforts time to have a fighting chance before throwing in the towel. You gave your boss the benefit of the doubt and he has let you down. Some people would stay in this hell for 40 years before doing anything. So please give yourself a break. Maybe I am taking this post too seriously, but I admire you and I think you've handled everything very professionally and gracefully and MAYBE you should have moved on sooner rather than later (for your own sanity), but if anything was holding you back it was misplaced loyalty.

You get over it. The beautiful thing about this, is, when there children are behaving badly, which is inevitable, you just say "I wouldn't raise MY kid like that" or "My kid would never do that," and no one can question you because obviously there is no child to disprove this statement! Seeing how people change after they have kids sucks. The friend you are talking about always has had a kind of "maternal" type way about her, so I expect she probably won't be any different after child is born. I just hooe she doesn't give it a stupid name like those people in Hollywood.Ms. Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17141080045713400029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21239385.post-83360542448885199062008-07-09T08:38:00.000-05:002008-07-09T08:38:00.000-05:00I love this post.
