Tired of running away

I cannot believe it! I stayed in a toxic work environment for more than 2 years. One day, something just clicked, and I finally decided to end my misery once and for all. 

So many things have happened since 2021. Long story short, I ran until I couldn't run anymore and I decided to F it. 

The straw that broke the camel's back was the utter disrespect I had to endure when the Woman said she wanted to give me the admin position but could not even have the decency to tell me she had decided to hire her buddy. What's the point of letting me wait 1 month? And I had to approach her to ask her about the status? What's the point of setting up passive-aggressive rules and regulations? 

1. I finally caved and went for therapy/counselling! 

2. I finally decided it was time to leave the company! 

3. I finally decided to put myself "out there" and seek a new job! 

4. I finally went for an interview that was entirely impromptu (a Saturday, of all days) 

5. I got a job offer today! OMG! 

I am terrified of getting hurt again. I am now 32 years old and I seriously doubt I can handle another blow to my delicate emotional state of mind. 

But I guess what they say is true, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger.
