I know exactly what you mean. I keep going back + forth... but I kinda feel like I NEED to do this finally. For my mental health, too.

AND... if I end up temping or waiting tables for awhile, that's life... I've done it before. And at least it wouldn't drive me so crazy.

Decisions, decisions..

I just drafted my letter of resignation.

I don't know if I'm going to turn it in or not yet, though.

Thanks for the encouragement. :)

I'm thinking those exact same thoughts. This weekend, I dreamt I got fired, and it was stressful, but a relief, too. I couldn't get back to sleep though, because of all the anxiety (because I am not actually fired and still have to work there).

I really would rather be temping, my husband just wants me to be happy (but still bringing in income). And I wonder if I'm stupid for considering voluntarily leaving a job that, for the time-being, gives me permanent employment. I'd only get two weeks paid out, and would probably give more than two weeks notice. I haven't finished updating my resume though.

Only you can decide ... it's a balance between sanity and security.

Yea... if it weren't for the large amount of vacation time + xtra money, I don't think I'd be seriously considering it. But you know - there ARE a lot of jobs out there. It's just more competitive @ the moment.

*sigh*
