As life goes on...

Ive made the personal decision to take charge of my life and my talents. I put in for my release from BA, with a little money to hopefully pocket in the event I can find sustainable employment within 6 months. For too long I have felt unappreciated, unrecognized and abused. It would only get worse if I chose to stay. BA finally gave me a way out that I could take without regret or remorse. I have held that company up for so long, helping everyone who would benefit from my talents, for their own betterment and in the end I continued to get the shaft. Sure I got a 4% raise every year when no one else did... but that doesn't even compensate me for doing tohe work of your incompetent management.

No longer will I take this abuse silently. I will move on from your corperation and start anew where I am unknown and able to make a new name for myself. I can walk from that job with my head held high, a good damn resume that will probably get me some form of work relatively quicker than most others affected by this relentless economy, and about 10k in survival money that I can manage to sustain my life for the next 6 months if necessary. I have no delusions about the challenge that now faces me, but I also have faith in my abilities and know that this will turn out to be the better decision. In the event I can find a job that will insure my daughter before my time is up, then I have walked from this company in the positive column. Sure I will take a pay cut, but its worth it to me. Now that my bankrupcy is in motion, its only a matter of time before I can realize my goal of being rid of that job. I just simply took steps now to only better my position.

So now I look forward to my last week as a BA employee, and my eventual exile from a job that I loathe. They deserve to be crippled by the loss of an employee that can do their job better than they can. I feel empowered and elated.

I have received nothing but support from those directly affected by this decision, and close friends inside and outside of that office who know how unappreciated I was. It is time for me to move on from a futureless job, and create my own future. Now's the time to take a stand for myself and do something new with my life.

Now's my time... I Quit!!
