I had a whole 'should I stay or should I go' moment with work and I never got around to telling you what happened.
Well my boss returned from holidays to find me with my 'Interview Leave' request form in hand (yes, they even have leave for interviews!) and he was really wonderfully lovely - not only did he give me some good (positive) advice about working in Schools, he also said how valued I was to him and the team and what they'd do to keep me. This was reiterated by Elaine (his boss). When they said the things they would change, fix and do, I realised there actually wasn't much left that I didn't like about my job.
I went to the interview and although they were really lovely, had decided I was going to stay put. Gary was back on holidays, so I emailed him and then told my colleague Lynda and Elaine and they both squealed and hugged me which was really nice! And to be honest, I've not looked back since.
Work has changed (as has my attitude) and the foibles I didn't like are being ironed out. It does ALL work out in the end - all you need is a little faith.

That is so sweet to hear that things are making a positive change for you in the work place.
You have proven yourself and, in the end, everyone seems to be sharing in the good fortune.
Faith, hope, and love have solved a lot of things in life so do keep the faith, Liisa, my friend. I may add that hope and love are your natural qualities.
