Going to the “Dark Side”

Started by dennmart · 7 months ago

It’s been ages since I last updated this blog. I’ve been pretty busy for the past month or so, ut it’s due to something that I didn’t want to do in the first place. Let me tell you a quick story about it.

    Hope your boss doesn't read your blog, if he does, delete this comment! :)

    You should have your resume ready and go do some practice interviews. Find out what you're worth and then go job hunting. I bet you can find a job where you'll spend time on better projects, forward thinking, etc... learning new skills, using your new skills, etc, (of course I haven't read your whole blog)

    Reason why I say this is you could spend hours there helping him with this project that will not really be your direction in life, you know what I mean?

    Best of luck :)

    Hey Jo,

    I think my boss knows my feelings about heading towards this direction, so no fears in him finding out about this! Right now, I'm currently doing what you said, updating my resume and looking elsewhere for greener pastures. In the rest of my blog, I've written about my other interests right now - Learning Ruby on Rails, trying to land a job in the U.S. where I can use Rails full-time, etc. So yeah, that's definitely where I'm headed. Like I said, I have no problems with Microsoft or their programming languages / frameworks, but it just isn't where I want to go in my career.

    Thanks for dropping by and leaving those comments. That assures me that I'm doing the right thing!
