And the shocking news.. is that I will leave my current employer (ING Bank NV) starting of.. today (well this will be my final workday). After a period of almost 5 years it was time for me to find another challenge. For the last weeks/months I was jobhunting and had a lot of interviews, some were interesting, some where fascinating and some where less interesting. I did realise that this is the moment to look for a job in the IT sector, people are actively scouting and looking for experienced people. I think I have some experience and noticed that in the various job offers I got. At the moment I did not decide yet which offer I am going to take, the companies I can choose between are both very interesting which makes the choice difficult, but friday I will know and will let the companies know what I have decided.
This not only means that I will leave my current job, but it will also mean that I will loose contact with a lot of people that I have been involved with for the last 5 years. Some of them I will be really missing (they surely know who I mean) and ofcourse some of them won't be missed by me at all. That is just a normal response in my eyes after five years in a very big company (100.000+ employees).
Oh well, the party is over now, heading to work for my final workday, and then heading back at the 31st of August to say goodbye, all collegue's are welcome to join me and Avinash (who is also leaving) for a little piece of cake and some coffee or tea (warning; the coffee is overrated, handle with care ;-)).
end of the shocking message; Friday (or after Friday) I will write up something about my choice and stuff, one fact is clear; i will have a new car from the company and it will be a very nice car
