Today was the day, the day I quit my job. I've been working at this "high" end landscaping company for a while now and at first it felt like a great place to be and work. I really wanted to take another company with a limited or nonexistent fleet department and whip it into shape. I really enjoy those projects. Solving issues and creating systems are what my brain crave at a job. I thought I was given the opportunity to do that at this place, but I was fooled. Immediately, I was thrown into chaos and had to make sense of things with extremely limited resources. I felt like I was stretched out as far as I could and was barely holding the place together. I would voice my problems and my needs to my boss, but the resolution was always the vibe of "how can I help you help yourself?". It's a very frustrating situation to be in when you do the job that I do. An unappreciated job, an over worked job, a waste of your passion job. This place made me so miserable and unhappy. I became depressed and angry. Eventually, I became burnt out. I felt hollow inside and saw in gray. The people I worked for were incompetent, rich, bullies. Maybe I would go as far as to say corrupt. So many great people were chewed up and spit out. They will never learn from their mistakes, but at least I won't go down with their ship. I've moved on. It's time to heal, and become happy again.

My partner was given the opportunity to work at her current job but based out of Utah. Her and I have been growing a bitterness towards the overall lifestyle and community that the Denver area has to offer. We have been developing a plan for a while now to make the move. Quitting my job was part of that plan and now all systems are go. Over the next month I will be packing and making trips to Utah, I believe that I can get us fully moved in three trips. Yes, we could do it an one trip but we both have some things in Denver we need our belongings for. Once we have all of our things in Utah things do not slow down from there. My Partner and I will be flying to Hawaii! More to come on that latter. Whenever we do start slowing down and spending time in our new place, I'm excited to start exploring our new home and surrounding areas.

Well that's all I have to say for now. I could probably write ten pages of bad things to say about my former employer, but I don't want to give them anymore of my energy.

Stay Restless!
