I received TWO awards, but in a sardonic way!

Last Friday, at my current employer's holiday party, the executive director announced me as Employee of the Year. A moment later, I received a call from another company that confirmed State of Texas' approval of my being hired. Then, at that moment, the same director announced me as one of the three employees in recognition of 10 years outstanding service. Everybody turned to me while I was on my cell. Nobody had an idea at that moment that I have accepted a job with another company. I stood up again to walk to the stage to receive another award. My boss and some of my co-workers came to me and stated that they were so proud and happy for me. These awards put me into a bit of dilemma. I thanked them very much, and by the way, I turned my resignation letter in to my boss afterwards on the same day. That was a bit amuzing to me in a sardonic way, but I was comfortable with my decision to proceed with a job change.

My last day with the current employer, Legacy Community Health Services, is January 12, 2007, which is four days after my 11th anniversary with the employer as a database coordinator. My start date with my new company, Communication Access Ability Group is January 15th as a Deaf/Hard of Hearing Regional Specialist.

That's a huge change for me...................Wish me luck.

Thanks for listening.

-Brian
