20 Sep 10 You’re not the same person you were
The person you are today is a lot different than the person you were 5, 10, 15, 20 years ago.
After graduating from high school, I went to college, with my initial major in Chemical Engineering, just like my Dad. Spring quarter of that year I transferred my major to Civil Engineering.
Two-thirds of the way through my program, I knew I didn’t want to be a Civil Engineer. I concentrated on the Environmental Engineering classes and eventually graduated.
My first job was doing environmental management for a manufacturing company. After about two years, I began to see that work wasn’t a good fit for me. I’d developed some skill in programming databases to get reporting done, so I changed careers.
That was ten years after I graduated from high school. Twenty-two years ago this week was when I started college. I’m quite a different person today.
Your story probably follows a similar but different path. In my short life I’ve come to understand that how I feel about work and what is best for me professionally is different and will change, just as the world around me changes.

14 Dec 06 Counter Offer Letter – Follow-up Post
A post I wrote back in October 2006 entitled “Counter Offer Letter” continues to generate traffic to this site. Unfortunately, there was not any substantial advice given on that post…
Until today:
The post now also contains the link to Google search results for “sample counter offer letters“, which looks to be really helpful.
