If you leave, it’s because you couldn’t cut it.’ Now that I’m out… I see that there are other places that do great work but it was so much of that toxic culture that was keeping me in and basically took over my opportunities in my 20’s/early 30’s to travel as much as I would have wanted and exist beyond work and the gym and maybe hanging with my spouse and my dog.
A former coworker described the mentality of our prior work place as ‘it’s like the Marines. What I did discover though was that I could still pursue really interesting work at my ‘lower paced’ job. I am able to make plans for holidays and not worry that I’m going to be sneaking off to finish a presentation while my extended family drinks wine and hangs out. I have every weekend off this October and just took my birthday off. I went on three vacations this summer and didn’t work at all on one of them.
Particularly when someone who had been my staffer and I had mentored and taught reached a level over me…īut also – I got to go be the secret reader in my kid’s class.
Then I think what hobbies or obsessions or future projects my friends & family have. I like French department stores for inspiration, local bookstores for book inspiration. I also like to give yearly subscription to online fitness classes. They were out of stock for ages, so when I got notification of them being back in stock, I ordered 10 and plan to send them to my guests. And Ikea Natjasmin bedsheets – whenever I have guests, they ask me where are the bedsheets from…they are super soft and have a silk finish. I also gift cosmetics often, that’s one of my hobbies. I am heading to Paris next, so handbags or small leather goods, fancy homegoods from the shopping malls will probably be added to the collection. I usually pick up interesting things for family & friends while I travel: Scottish Christmas tree ornaments, wool blankets, cashmere sweaters & scarves Dutch tulip bulbs and ceramics I bought some nice linen bedsheets in Lithuania crazy-design aprons in Mexico etc.
