Hi :hugs:
I didn't know where to post this so I thought maybe it will be OK to in here.
I had my final 6 month review and I passed it which means I now have a new career.
I've been with this company for 6 years, working in IT but was doing shift work for most of that as a 1st/2nd line support type role which I got really bored with after a few months. I then became a Team Leader of that department which again I didn't enjoy at all because it was getting further away from the Technical aspects.
Last year an opportunity came where there was a vacancy for a more Technical role and most importantly working normal hours, no more shifts! I got the job and today I had my final review in which they couldn't praise me more for how well I've done and without any real direction from anybody, I just took the bull by the horns and saw what needed improving. My anxiety has made the job harder for me due to a having to be involved in a lot of meetings & customer facing which can really affect your performance if you're not 100%... amazingly I somehow managed to cope with it and I guess I have been rewarded today for it :)
Thank you for listening.
