Today I have accepted a new job at a different company and i feel like i am having a melt down. Its a very stressful time, what with money and work issues and I have decided to try and sort both with a fresh start in a slight change of career. In essence I used to work as consultant at my current company but a year ago moved into sales. This has been great.... at the times i have been allowed to sell. The problem is that due to me moving into sales it created a gap in skills that has resulted in me frequently being called back into the my last role. I took a fairly large paycut to move into sales with the money being made back up with commision but it has just turned into a nightmare with me effectively working doing more for 25% less money.
I recently had a client offer me a very decent job as a Commercial IT Manager with a fixed salary far in excess of my current wage and so today i accepted. The worry is now that tomorrow I have to resgin from my current workplace of 3 years!
Its all very scary and stressful, i have a crazy mad headache, the shakes and all sorts of things. Still training tonight so that should clear my head a bit.
On a plus note, due to my job now being 9-5 I can actually open my own do-jang when i reach blackbelt in a year or so's time so i am very excited about that possibility!!!
