I was forced out of a job that I absolutely loved after 10 years last November. New CHRO came in a basically got rid of the entire HR Leadership team. Got a semi-nice golden parachute, so I was able to survive for quite some time. Keep in mind that while I am job hunting, I am in SC, so it's hybrid in Charlotte or full time remote, or on-site somewhere in the Columbia, SC area. Fast forward to March and I accept a full-time remote manager job because i need electricity, food and health bennies. Fortune 500 company, good culture, great people, but very much a tactical job. I got bored fast. Continued to look and landed a dream job at non-profit, but one that is absolutely huge - 44K employees and $30 BB in revenue. You all are familiar with them as their name is on a certain stadium we all know and love. I'm on day 12, and I'm loving every minute of it.
It looked pretty grim there for a minute, but as I tell Mrs. McButterpants, "things always work out for me." thank you universe 🙏
