As I don't post often, I'll try and keep this, well, brief? Who knows, wish me luck.

On Friday, I left my job as a Business Analyst. I joined two and a half years ago as a temp, and I was lucky that someone saw what I was doing and went "Wait... He can do so much! And he doesn't know it! Let's lure him in with shiny things"

The past... *squints* ...15 years? Yeah (holy crap)

*ahem* The past 15 years have been a hell of a lot of changes, from leaving a dead end I couldn't see a way out of, to being taught How To See Things (my spouse is awesome, she code good), to finding ways and means to use my skills and see beyond them.

I'm now leaving a job that's (mostly) supported me, and let me grow (partly, admittedly, because they quickly realised that if they let me grow I'd Get Things Done, and lo, they were very happy). It's scary, but necessary.

And on Monday, I start as a Data Analyst at a new company. With people I've never met, processes I've never seen and in a business I'm not familiar with.

It's a little terrifying.

But necessary.

And, mostly, nervously exciting :D

Hello! Just realised, I maybe should have posted this yesterday, or something...

I have a Large Beard. And, in 45 minutes time (2 pm, GMT), I'll be guided through removing it by anyone that wants to join The Banyard Unbearding event.

If you happen to be free, come along! If you don't, really, don't worry. This is just me, desperately checking that I still have a chin underneath all this ;)


Edit: IT IS DONE!! The beard has been removed, bit by bit, and the chronicle of its removal can be seen here! Right here!!
