I am jumping ship after 15 years and moving over to a startup company .. Its a huge change for me and it took alot of soul searching to decide..

If all goes to plan I will be handing my letter of resignation over to the CEO Monday...

Very excited and scared senceless all in the same breath..

BTW for anyone considering a life change.. I recomend Tim Ferriss books...

First...to all you guys with medical issues...move to canada...that crap is FREE...then live your life as you please. We can teach you to skate and play hockey, drink beer...with more then a drop of alcohol, ride a moose, chug maple syrup, say please and thank you. For no reason at all....we actually are a really cool nation. Southern ontario has better winters then Chicago, New York, Buffalo, Boston etc. Which leaves 4-5 months to work on the car for the upcoming spring
LOL Cheers boys

Good for you.

Living in the Bay Area I have seen a lot of companies come and go. In the .com days I must have deleted 100+ voicemails from recruiters while working for ADP (fortune 100 company, blah, blah). I had friends go to start ups that made them millionaires on paper only to have the crash wipe them out. They all found new better jobs over the years. It hurt a little but they all bounced back.

I have other friends who were in the first 100 employees of Salesforce.com, early on at eBay, google, and so on. Some cashed out others are still there because they love what they do.

Me, I stayed put because it was safe. 11 years later I got sick of the BS and bailed. Looking back I regreat staying as long as I did and not taking the chance or those phone calls.

3 years ago, after 14 years in the same industry, I made a total career change. Have been drinking from the fire house ever sense but love it. Should have done it earlier... But I always knew that if it didn't work out I could go back to what I knew in a heart beat.

Embrase the change... It will all work out - best of luck.

Glad you followed your brain... when it's time to go - it's time to go. If you don't go and you stay unhappy ---- what kind of life is that.

If you're a doer... get ta doin!
