Well, it’s official(ly scary)
Leaving a stable job, and setting out into uncharted waters is quite daunting. After four years of (more or less) the same commute, turning the other direction onto the highway yesterday morning seemed as if I was defiantly choosing to go somewhere besides work. As I walked up to the entrance, it felt like I had taken a day off and was going to run an errand, a doctors visit, or something of the like. It’s been strange to learn new build, & deployment processes, when I had known the others so well. It feels odd to be in a position where I need others to help me do the most basic of things, when I had been on the other side of the wall for so terribly long. To be fair, it’s only been two days, and the truth of the matter is this feels great. It’s all at once disconcerting and exhilirating. I’m learning so much and there’s still so much left to learn.
