I'd have to say that I am happy with my career. I had this conversation with my psychiatrist yesterday when he asked me about my finances and he suggested my going to school to be an LPN. While this career won't make me rich, it suits my personality. Working directly with people the way a nurse with have to doesn't.
I have access to 98% of the information that passes through our office and know many of the bosses' decisions before my direct supervisor which shows me I've earned their trust. My opinion is sought on many issues which shows me I've earned their respect. In essence, I feel that in many ways I can be the power behind the throne so to speak. Without me and my knowledge there is a lot that wouldn't get done that needs to be done. Because I have proven myself, I am relied upon to make sure that everything is done the way it should be and on time.
I know I sound like I'm bragging, but if I don't sing my own praises, no one else will.
Even when I have days that I can't stand to be at work or around my co-workers, I love what I do.
Michelle
