Been Gone For A Minute.
Well hello there! I'm finally on the other side of my testing journey and took a month to decompress from that very intense process, but ya girl is back! Good news is I passed all my exams and secured my job!! Bad news is that I'm realizing I don't enjoy the job/training. A lot has happened since May and I'm going to do my best to remember it all.
Last time I wrote here I spoke about the leap of faith I made to move to another state and start a brand new career. Well, my testing journey was only suppose to be a 2 month process, ending in June, or so I believed. Instead I spent a total of 4 months studying on my days, nights, and weekends. I was so down bad at one point after I failed that I sobbed in front of my Team Lead because I was mentally exhausted and sad that those around me were fired for not getting a passing score to continue the job.
I'm nearing the end of my training process and learning that the closeness I thought I built with my coworkers wasn't that at all and these people are indeed, just y coworkers. Not friends. So that's another realization I'm coming to as to not get irritated. It's funny how my past job habits were completely wiped once I started this job and realized it's not like the others. So engaging with coworkers, giving them access to you outside of work, is something I'd have to get familiar with so I can survive in a sense. But now that I know all we are is coworkers, I wish I had kept my previous way of thinking so I wouldn't feel the hurt I do now. See I got a little sad on you out the gate. Sorry!
As far as any fun I've had, well I've had plenty! I've gone to brunch with an old coworker, got some sweet deals at a Target liquidation store to help make my apartment look less jail celly, started going to concerts again, and most recently had my first guest over where we went to a local polo classic themed event! To say I'm living my best life wouldn't be a lie, but I know it'll get even better once I get even more acclimated to the city.
My hope for this last quarter of the year is that I can finally launch my website for merch 👀, stay consistent with these posts, and complete those unfinished goals from my list earlier this year. 2023 has been quite an interesting ride and I hope more abundance and happy days find their way to me.
Welp, that's all for now...byeee!
