Quote from marblesteen >> Congrats Hook! good luck with the transition. I remember like ten years ago i quit work at a pizza place... as i left i told my co-workers "Peace out, it's been a slice!". Gotta leave with a good line.
Quote from bethro01 >> So happy for you!
I had a job once. Then I didn't. End of story. Lol.
I will smoke for you....
I don't think enough people are willing to take those chances. So props for doing it. Most people seem to choose familiarity & "the known" over trying to do what makes them happy or increases their quality of life. Hope everything goes great.
Before moving to the DFW metroplex, I was repping the 915( El Paso, TX) for my whole life and 7 years for the City Of El Paso and one spring my wife decides for a new chapter, new city. We started looking for jobs and by the summer they both had jobs in the heart of TX. ;) we were nervous as can be. Didn’t know what we were getting ourselves into. I literally stopped working on Friday to start a new job on Monday and a new city. I love challenges but the hardest was being away from the family for 2/3 months. Kids were still in school. My wife was able to transition the same in the summer. Flew to El Paso on a Friday to move our stuff across TX. -_- No regrets brotha, we move forward not backwards. If you fall down get your butt back up and start again. I know you’ll do good. You’re a family man and a hard worker. You're a family first kind of guy that doesn’t let them down.
So happy for you!

Thanks for all the well wishes fellas. Was nice to hear some encouraging experiences as well. Let's do this! I feel like my house just went under contract and I have to wait 30 days for the closing lol. Ready to get started!
Quote from hookrightthur >> Hey yo, been a minute since I created a thread. This is pretty big news for me since I have been with the company for 9 years. Last week I was presented with an opportunity that I couldn't refuse, and this is going to be a good thing for my family 100%, but I have to admit its also a little scary leaving a place that you have grown accustomed to and starting fresh regardless of the benefit. Feel free to drop a line about any similar situations in employment changes you all have had. I would be interested to hear!
good luck man, i have uprooted before and it is a huge deal
