Note to self…

Let me start off by saying this really did happen … At work a few weeks ago I told my bosses boss in a candid conversation that I wouldn’t be working here to much longer. In that conversation it was stated that this information would stay between us and the only reason why I was sharing it in the first place was I thought I could be honest with him. A few days passed and another weekend gone and on that following Tuesday I got called into the office and asked “What’s going on?” I must have had a pretty funny look on my face since I had no idea what she was talk about. She then continued to say that she talked to Mike. Well I guess the cat is out of the bag … The not so private conversation with Mike is now public knowledge? During the course of that meeting I think I was more in shock than anything else. I didn’t know what to do other than give my notice and be done with the whole thing. The next day Mike came back from his vacation and asked to speak with me. I’m thinking what on earth could you want? You already told Ashley that I was thinking about quitting. This is the part in the story where everything starts to come together. I was talking to Mike and I said “I thought our conversation was supposed to be between us?” He looks at me and says what do you mean? I didn’t tell any one. I then explained how everything had progressed in the meeting. Mike looks at me very seriously and says Victoria … You put it on your blog! Oh crap! I did, and when I did I didn’t think about the fact that anyone from work would be reading it. I love writing my blog and I feel like I need to be honest even if sometimes people won’t like it. So the moral of this story … If you are fellow blogger like me and you are thinking of quitting your job … Don’t write about until you have done it or are sure that’s what you are going to do.

I do believe everything works out for a reason and now that I do not have something holding me here in Key West I am able to fly home and take care of my grandma while my parents are in Hawaii. I also get to attend my friend Jamie’s wedding and be home for my Mothers birthday too! I think I also needed this extra push to continue my consulting company down here and this has been really good at motivating me to finally do it.
