Worked in IT for a dozen years doing network administration. I felt alone and irreplaceable. The job was nice enough to afford me time to study nursing for a career change. I hired my replacement as I started school assuming quick termination. As luck would have it, they gave me a raise when I went part-time and I no longer had to do any projects I didn't care for. When I started my nursing job at the hospital I continued to work with my old company once per week. Now that I'm super busy as a nurse and continuing my nursing education, I fear my old tech job will really end soon. I kinda like it once per week! I love my new career. I get to work closely with people and help them through tough times. It's very rewarding and my new colleagues appreciate my tech background. I've gotten 2 raises since I started 6 months ago and now make more than my old job working only 3 days per week. The job is not easy, but when I go home, someone else is doing the job so nobody is calling me urgently to get something done. At the same time, I moved from a small company to a large company. The benefits are good and the perks are complete. Since I started my job as a nurse I have received almost 200 hours of professional development training. Useful classes that apply towards making me better at my job. In my old tech job, I went to an annual trade show and that was about the extent of training. Anybody else have a job like I did in tech? I had infinite projects to do and unlimited time to do them in. It was weird and not conducive to productivity. Now every day I go to work, I know I will do something important. My patients will be grateful and my employers will support me. Yeah, no regrets here!
