I'll make it over the weekend.
My manager said my 'dream job' was do-able. Very do-able. And her, and the other managers involved in this, came up with three other options that may appeal: one of them particularly does, as does the so-called 'dream job', and the others, while out-of-left-field, were not unappealing: but I think I'll at least narrow it down to the two most appealing.
Perhaps a no-brainer: I am in no doubt I am in an enviable position. I am very lucky. Of course, there is a level of selfishness [as there is in everything] in their wanting me to stay: I, as much as I feel like an ego-maniac writing this, know my stuff and know the business, and must be doing something right. But there are positives as well: 'better the devil you know' as Ms Minogue once sang. And seeing the level of effort various managers, many whom I rarely work with, are going to must say something.
I'm leaning to a 'Yes'. It 'feels' right: which while nice on one hand is also some cause for concern given I know my feelings are often a very untrustworthy guide. Perhaps it is better to make small changes, particularly with my mind the way it is currently.
I'd like to say I'd pray about it, but my prayers are more, "God...I have no idea what I want to do or what I am supposed to do. Help my stumbling self somehow." Of course, work's response could be the answer. We shall see.
Thanks for the support, encouragement, advice and prayers all. I greatly appreciate it.
