I got my offer letter officially today from Source Refrigeration and HVAC, and I start my new job tomorrow. I will first start out in their dispatch center helping get it all fixed up, and helping out during the hot season. Then I will move over to Customer Account Specialist, taking care of Safeway, I hope. With my experience and knowledge of Safeway, it would be a terrible waste if they didn't take full advantage of that! :)
So, tomorrow I start a new chapter in my career. Onwards and upwards. I'm very excited and can't wait. I was very stagnant at Safeway, was so afraid of change (which is strange for me) that I didn't bother to look around for options. I was there for 7 years 8 months - the longest job I've ever had in my life. I won't make the mistake again of not keeping options open. I will keep an eye on all kinds of things, keep my options open, keep networking with people that I not only genuinely like, but would love to work with. Loyalty to a company is all well and good, but if there is no chance of promotion, then it is not the place for me. I am still loyal to Safeway, and will continue to shop there, but I need to go further in my career. I love refrigeration and HVAC, supermarkets in particular, but staying at the same job doing the same thing for years on end is not where it’s at anymore. At least not for me. I have been making some big changes in my life, and this is just one more.
I’ve always been a late bloomer!!
Blessed be!
