They said it couldn't be true, that the grass isn't always greener on the other side. But this is a fairy tale come true, because good things do come to those who wait.
From last year to this year, a lot of things happened in my life. Some for the worse and some for the better. All in all, everything balanced itself out and I am incredibly lucky to be in the position I am in today given all of the turmoil that's occurred over the last 18 months.
I was honored for 2 awards at work - which was incredibly shocking and such a humbling experience. Who knew that all of the complaining I did at one point on this blog would all pay off? Who knew?!
I got a new job. Yes, a new job! Working for 2 people who are not only incredibly smart and well respected, but engaging and truly the best bosses you could ever have. I seriously look forward to going to work every day! (Cheesy? Nah!)
And I saw the light at the end of the tunnel. Sure, I worked for someone who took credit for my work, got in B-School with the credit from the work that I did, manipulated situations that no manager should ever even consider and single handedly ruined an entire team's morale, all within 6 months. Issues had been building up for months before that, but recently, everything came to a crashing halt and finally a straw broke the camel's back.
I believe in karma. I believe that if you are a good person this does not shield you away from bad things that could happen to you. But I also believe that if you work hard, try your best, and always put your best foot forward, your time will come. Whether it is today, tomorrow or 5 years from now.
I never would have imagined to love my job. I never would have imaged to work for someone I truly admire and want to be like one day. I just never though Corporate America would have anything of this to offer me.
But here it is. And I am glad I am here now.
