I feel your pain, at the moment I am scheduling to leave around June and still feel like holding out on telling work until it can no longer be avoided. The longer I hold out thought the more I'm going to leave the boss with trouble finding a replacement and me having time to train them. Times like this I wish I was one of those stuff you kinda guys that way I wouldn't feel so guilty skipping out. Good luck on your trip. Where are you heading too?

Good luck on your trip. Where are you heading too?

Really interesting considering I'm planning the same. And I'm definitely worried about telling my co-workers, not to mention my boss. Not even sure when I'm going to reveal it (leaving in April). Look forward to reading more about your trip planning! Hey, I just found your blog on Twitter, Chris. Really interesting considering I’m planning the same.

All that built up pressure but once its out your relieved and ready for anything.

My work is such a small group (4 of us) and nobody has left since the guy I replaced. But I've put in 6 years, which I think is a solid return on their investment so its time to get out and see a bit more of the world. It’s been a really hard thing to bring myself to do.

Everytime I consider leaving and exploring my opportunities, I feel way too guilty about not having given the company "my all." Sometimes we just gotta do things for ourselves, I guess. SIX YEARS?! Yeah, definitely time to hit the road. Dude, you read my mind on this one.
