Feeling a bit jittery

Well OH had meeting with boss which went surprisingly well considering.

He handed in his form to apply for the resignation package - boss was horrified and made it clear that they don't want him to leave. OH insisted they process the request even if they turn him down for the package.

Good things in the interim are they are going to restructure his hours so he gets an afternoon off a week and the boss agreed to his requests to be included on certain projects.

So he felt a bit more positive about current job. One of his friends has also given him a lead on a job which might be opening up in a few months in his company so that is a positive as well.

I broached the issue of paying for private counselling - he said he would consider it, so I will show him the website at the weekend.

Hey that sounds very positive- it sems they really are listening to him- that can only be good. I am sure that he will feel better with these changes and then can make a more informed decision as to whether to resign or not...
I am glad he is feeling better- work can be hell sometimes... but it is good to have it!

I know what you mean, my husband finished a job he hated, well paid etc 3 years ago. The grass isn't always greener and we've had a difficult time. At the moment I would say it's been a case of jumping from the frying pan into the fire but it was the right decision at the time as you don't know until you try.

Life is short so even though it isn't easy you almost don't feel like you have a choice. Hope it works out.
