Employment Therapy

Hello reader, today I am going to muse about my working life and you can read along and provide me a therapeutic ear.
You know? I’m a pretty loyal employee. I take my jobs seriously. I am punctual, and I take great care to do a good job and act in a way that reflects nicely on my corporate masters. Which is why I feel sort of crappy today. You see I have been contacted by another potential employer who may want to hire me, and now I feel like a disloyal traitor. I guess I should forgive myself, at least partially, as they contacted me, and it is a better deal than what I have now.
Looking back I sure have had an easy time finding work. My first job was working in a little mill and it was set up by my mother. Easy peasy. After college I got a job in another mill which hired me on the spot because of the other mill experience. When that company went tits up another mill called a bunch of us for a meeting and hired us. More easy peasy. They turned out to be a band of crooks so I got out of there. I went to the employment agency and read the job board. The process was you found a job that interested you then you filled out a card and went home and waited for a call. That seemed inefficient, so I got the phone number of the place, found it in the phone book and went there. They would have hired me on the spot but I didn’t have a lunch and agreed to start the next day. That was making spiral staircases. When they got slow I found another mill and they hired me. I really like that job and the owners, but I got into an argument with a supervisor about taking a day off to play in a chess tournament, so I stormed home, printed one resume and took it to another mill who said they weren’t hiring. By the time I got home the owner of that mill had called to hire me. I worked there for 10 years and had a great time.  Along came the part time gig reading water meters which has turned into 16 years with the same little group of people. And now the city has reached out to me, saying they are looking for my resume and it might be wise to submit it. Ultimate easy peasy, except for the nagging feelings of sadness and betrayal.

Is it some stupid ego thing, where I think I’m so valuable that it will hurt the company? That probably isn’t it. There are better people at doing maintenance than me. Do I think I’m so popular everyone will be crying when I go? Pretty sure that isn’t it! I guess part of it is comfort – just knowing where I am and what my parameters are.  After all these years I just blend into the background and have no one checking up on me.
I haven’t even been offered anything yet so I might as well relax until that happens. The big dangling carrot in this upcoming job is it comes with a pension. At my age, knowing someone is going to send me a monthly cheque to keep the fridge full is a really big deal.
Thanks for the therapy! (If you’re still reading) I feel strangely better having written that out.
