I love my new job.
I Resigned my teaching position back in June. After a long and difficult job search I finally got a position as an analytical chemist.
It is the best job I ever had. I come in I get my work done I go home. There's no interacting with the public, no pointless PD no having to stop what I'm doing every 10 seconds to correct someone else's behavior, no pointless PD. If I have to stay late to get work done I'm paid for it. The management actually communicates effectively, and most importantly I feel like I'm treated like an actual professional adult.
