I serve MacPhisto
on my boss.
I will have to go and sit down and tell him that I am leaving the company after only 5 brisk months.
I have been in this situation a few times before, but this should prove to be the hardest. I have a really good boss who I do not want to let down. He is very laid-back, very fair and open to discussion. Not the usual traits of a Quality Manager in the field of manufacturing. He gave me a couple of days off and arranged my position to be covered so that I could go and see U2 last fall. More importantly, he gave me a chance last summer when I was seeking a job in an oppressed economy after being out of work for 4 months.
Of course my timing couldn't be any worse. Our department is shifting our focus and it's taking a lot of "vigilance" on all of our parts. I am even scheduled to attend a training seminar nest week. I hate to have to see them try and bring somebody else in with all of the chaos going on, especially after they just got me up to speed.
Of course, I am a fool to stay. I was just offered a position with the DOD that I applied for last july, and it ties in with my previous military experience. Better benefits, hours, $$$, better everything.
Anyway, I really feel guilty about dropping a bomb on my boss. The company has also treated me very well.
