So today is the day that I start preparing to get out of the way, which is just another way of saying quit my job. Today I sat in a meeting and heard how many positions our area has lost and how hard it’s going to be to replace anyone. It makes me feel bad. It makes me feel guilty that I want to leave at this, the worst time.
I know the organization won’t die without me, and in fact if they can hire a replacement then that person might really flourish where I have only floundered.
I guess I’m feeling a little like I’m giving up, or that I’ve failed.
So now I need to give some thought to my project in progress and figure out, what needs to be done to ensure the project is continued and what can I leave behind?
Also, I really wish I had not agreed to speak at TLA this year. I wonder if I can wiggle out of it…
