Best of luck on the new job. When I finally left my first career behind, it felt great. I hope the change works out well.

I hope it works out for you. I couldn't imagine leaving a company like Apple in this economic climate, but I'm sure your decision was sound and best for you. Good luck!

Is your new job drastically different than the old job? I've been employed in the manufacturing sector as a Draftsman, Methods Analyst, Industrial Engineer or Manufacturing Engineer for the past 35 years and am seriously considering getting out of manufacturing altogether. All 5 businesses I've worked for have either been sold or closed or both (maybe I'm a jinx?). My current company is closing their doors sometime in May or June and I'm soon-to-be 52 years old.

 

I've already decided I'm just going to kick back for a couple of months and sell comics. After that I'm not sure what I'm going to do. (shrug)

Thank you all for the kind words :)

 

I needed to quit the job for various reasons...and the new job will pay for the rest of my schooling, and yes..it has a slight pay increase for less work (:

 

ultimately, leaving a huge corporation like Apple for a third party retailer is a gamble in the long run, but in the 'long run' I sure hope i'm not working retail any longer lol

 

to answer your question shark: nope, my job is not drastically different whatseover...I'm still an apple technician, i just won't have to deal with customer service any longer....just straight repairs :)

 

26 years old is TOO OLD to be working at a mall, IMO ( no offense meant to anyone that works at a mall )...

 

books coming up in a few (thumbs u

Bone #1 first print 9.0/9.2 SOLD

 

This is a nice solid copy...only reason i'm letting this go is bc i just got a nice Bone #1 slab (: This is a great pressing candidate, and a nice book to have on file for the Heroes signing...Highest graded SS copy is schmidt's 8.5 (which has tons of CB stress cracks)...this could be YOUR HIGHEST GRADED BONE #1 SS ON THE CENSUS :o

 

yours for $479 shipped!!
