I have come to a crossroads y'all. I am no longer able to function in my current role with my employer. I either need to step down from a managerial position to a technical position or switch from FT to PT.
I am the manager of a satellite facility for a small business. The company I work for has been great to me. Benefits, pay and time off are all top notch.
I was off of work for 2 weeks during the holidays and I realized something. My headaches went away, I was able to exercise more and not because I wasn't working. I have been putting in some work remodeling the house. Not just painting the walls but rather moving walls and plumbing and electrical and removing porcelain floors, any idea how much work removing thinset is? It's a lot!
I was more relaxed and could focus so much more on what I was doing. I was more patient with my wife and kids (that's something I been working on) and was enjoying life. I've been back to work three days and "BOOM".... headache and for the first time in days I can feel the stress in my bones.
I have written a letter to my manager at corporate expressing my gratitude for the opportunity to manage the facility and thanking him for the experience that has brought to me. I also expressed my eagerness to discuss the best way to move forward and find a solution that helps the company meet their objectives while satisfying my concerns. Hopefully we can work something out.
looking forward to some perspective from others, what say ye?
