One minute I am smiling and excited, the next minute I'm sad and crying. What other experiences have you guys had when changing to a new position? Are these feelings normal and will they go away?
I have found out that after being at the same job for 4+ years, or ever 1 year, you become very "familiar" which I believe is what some of us need. When switching jobs, you need to examine all factors involved, ie location, pay, hours, appreciation, and the list goes on. You'll find, when and if you leave, you'll stay in touch but will soon adjust to your new job. I always believed that job changes will increase your professional growth and experience.
Never stay in a rut!!!!!!!
New job, feel emotional
