That was the message in my fortune cookie. I posted in General about a new job. I got an offer letter that I accepted recently. More money than I made before (ever before to be precise) and my duties are elevated and more interesting to me than what I'm doing now.
Sometime fortune cookies get it right

Don't you love it when a 'fortune' cookie has an actual fortune? Especially a good one that comes true! Congrats Brandon!

Thanks thebighurt. Yeah, my first thought was "Wow, has there ever been a fortune in a fortune cookie that was so spot on?"
Thanks gahurts.

I definitely learned that I am introverted people-person. So 100% working from home is not me. This new job changes that.

Thanks Williesmom
Yeah, it's been a learning experience. My IC reminded me about "still waters running deep" because even though I'm quiet by nature and even I am not very demonstrative of my feelings for others I do care deeply. I'm learning to find ways to express that.
There are a lot of caring people here on SI and I appreciate SI and all of the support I've received.
