Thinking on Richmond
|
I had my interview in Richmond today. They offered me the job. So, now the ball is in my court.
The move would be a good one, career-wise. I'd get PM* experience and training, and the work is more like what I want to be doing- there's still a variety, and I won't get pigeonholed as, say, the DBP**-girl, but there is little to no environmental documentation, which is fabulous. It's a small office, but I actually know 2 of the three people I'd be working with- one was a few years ahead of me in grad school, and one was a vendor I worked with on a pilot project .
Of course, the downside is it means moving out of my comfort zone. I'm leaning towards taking it, because at this point in my life, my career is the thing that's important. Plus, I'd get to see the sprog a lot more.

Oh my gosh! First of all, congratulations on getting the offer!!
Secondly, yeah, big decision to have to think about. We'd certainly miss you, my dear, but if it's a good career move, well, it's a good career move. Let me know if you want to brainstorm about it. When do you have to let them know?

who's working in Richmond? I'll be thinking of you as you make this decision and know that whatever you choose, it will be the right decision. You can do it! -- just look at you so far, moving to NC several years ago, not knowing anyone, and look at how it worked out. You can do it again and be close to family if you choose to move.

It sounds perfect. Sometimes in life we just have to take a leap and know that your friends are all there for you if leaping should end in landing uncomfortably. I am not sure what/who the sprog is but heck being nearer to the sprog has to be a good thing right?
Congratualtions my dear you deserve it!

What a great opportunity! Of course, if you take it, a road trip is so in order to come party with you in Richmond...
