So earlier this week, I signed a job offer. I was happy with that. Tuesday, got a new job offer from the company that is my first choice. Double yay!!! Of course, Isigned that one and I will proceed with that one. The job doesn't start until the first wek of October so I have another week to prepare for it. I still have to inform the other company about my decision.
Anyway, this new job takes me back to my previous industry, An industry that I spent almost twelve years in so I feel comfortable going back. There is a lot of potential because the company is just starting and there is a big chance of promotion for me plus for the tasks involved, the pay is really good compared to what I was doing before.
I'm beyond thankful with this new job offer!
Any good news to usher in the weekend for you fellow myLotters?
Here is my previous post about the botched submission of my resignation letter in my previous company,
... last night or so I thought. Turned out that it was still in my draft folder in my office email. So when I mentioned it to my colleagues over at our...

In a way it is difficult but at the same time, it is easier in some aspects.

Congratulations to you. I've got a job interview next week. I've been where I am for 3 years, which is a long time for me 
There are things I like about it, but also things I don't. The interview is for a similar type of work in a sort of related sector but it pays more, it's more hands-on, and I can make more of a difference rather than what happens now - which is basically that I spend half my time apologising that someone else hasn't done their job or trying to explain that I'm not 'just a secretary'!

@Marilynda1225 indeed.
I can manage stress i just didn't want to deal with it in my previous work. Not worth the effort.

@allen0187 fingers crossed and you're happy at the new place. Changing jobs brings a whole bunch of stress until you get settled there

It's nice you got this offer before beginning the other one, if I'm understanding correctly. Makes things a bit simpler.

Well done on getting both jobs.
A word of caution
Any company just starting out now may not be around long enough to make the most of that potential.
Just saying
Hope the first job offer company is not mad with you
