Sounds like it's the push you needed. Any ideas of what you'd like to do next?

This could be one of the best things that can happen. We can get stuck in a rut but when pushed we do better

good luck

One of the best things that happened to me was leaving a job after 23 years and starting something completely different (University Degree). After that a new job and a new way of life.

This happened to me 26 years ago and I took the plunge to work for my self. It has been tuff but I have never looked back.

No more working for idiots and if I want to finish early or need to work late it is me who takes the consequences .

Just a shame that you have to work your notice period, the company I used to work for always gave "gardening leave" ....
