Well after this morning, its 100% official. Drew is going into work very early and giving his notice. Its been almost 7 long years at the company...I can remember when it was new and fun and exciting for Drew to go in and make a difference there. As time changed, and people rearranged, it kept getting worse for him..no longer appreciated, belittled by his jackass of a boss...
With a few major, and successful projects under his belt, he is MORE than ready to find something new. He commented that he could be one of those guys that is at his office...who has been there for 30 yrs, still makes a meager earning, sorta zombies through his day and his life...he could just slip into that, but then in 10 yrs would probably wake up and wonder why the hell he just let life pass him by, why he didnt ever try to get out and find a job he was passionate about...well now he is doing that.
Labcorp sounds like a good starting off place to get into more biotech and research jobs..maybe it will be just a jumping off point, maybe it will be a place he really likes and stays at another 5-7 yrs. He came home with tons on his mind, after his interview...but was very excited about the genetic projects they do, and the people he will be working with...much better than previous bosses.
As for me, I will be SO sad to leave Jess, Joe, Ellie, Katie, and Chris! Took 6 years for Drew and I to find "real" friends here in Maryland. People you can just be comfortable around, not put on "airs" or feel like you cant be honest with. Its been so nice, if we are going out for a walk, we just stop by and see if Jess Joe and Ellie want to come, and vice versa. Need a dog sitter? someone to go to the grocery store with you...just pop on by Jess's
I will miss the lunch time walks with her, and the chats, seeing and feeling her baby bump kick and move, and how excited she is to meet her new baby!! soon soon!!
But now I am wandering off subject.
Aside from the bit of sadness, I am very looking forward to a house of our own, a new life, new experiences, a community to get involved with...and a family soon I hope!
Anyway, so I guess this posting will have to be changed...no longer "livin' in the Mill"......
