Devan this is a great post as I read this one and many others like it, and being in orientation this week I know that I have definitely made the right choice this is where I belongwish I had done it years ago. I have to admit tho at 50 years old it was a bit scary to start a new career, as Tractor Man said hopefully this will be my last.
Like you in my previous job I had no control as to how much money I could make it did not matter how good of an employee I was, and the slackers, complainers and whiners were going to make the same money as me. I like the fact that in this profession your salary is based on performance, you will get out of it what you put into it.
I want to say thank you for sharing your journey the highs as well as the lows with us here on this forum.
