A New Chapter

I officially resigned from Select Comfort a couple of weeks ago and have been taking it easy for a few days. Tomorrow I start a new chapter in my career. I am now a consultant with SafeNet Consulting and  my first client is Best Buy...Funny how I've come full circle and will be back there again.

I'm excited for this opportunity, albeit a little nervous. My employment is dependent on clients and projects that come my way. Not having something "permanent" is a little unnerving, but this could be really great! It provides me with more flexibility and variety in my work. Working with SafeNet makes the transition easier than becoming an independent consultant. I have a team behind me looking for jobs that are perfect for me and I don't have to worry about benefit coverage either.

The only downside so far is that I wasn't able to take more time off between jobs. My time off has flown by so quickly. I'm already looking forward to having next Thu-Fri off for Thanksgiving! While I don't think I could ever stay home full-time, I do think part-time would be nice...Does anyone know of a part-time gig that would pay a full-time salary?! Mark took last Friday off and we were able to join Keira for lunch at school and then we went and saw Skyfall. It was a wonderful day off...
