One of the factors I had to think about when deciding if I should stay at my long-time job or switch to something new was "quality of life." Which is hard to predict when so much about a new job opportunity is unknown. So I am pleased to report that my "quality of life" factor has definitely seen some improvements since my career change. Here's some reasons why:
* Lunch time jaunts to art exhibits on Temple Square, including the Norman Rockwell exhibit currently at the Church History Museum and the Christmas Season Art Showcase at the Joseph Smith Memorial Building.
*The chocolate milk that I remember fondly from my childhood at the Church Office Building cafeteria is still the best there is.
* Being downtown is awesome for walkability. I can pop over to Deseret Book, the Lion House or City Creek any time I please. Which is dangerous for my bank account, but still enjoyable. Plus there are more people around, so the pan handlers tend to behave better and I feel more comfortable walking around.
* Christmas on Temple Square never gets old. There are beautiful Christmas trees in the lobby of my building and even choirs who perform during the month of December.
* I have senior missionaries call up to my desk to announce my visitors. You can't beat that!
It's amazing what a difference these small things make. Yay for lucky decisions!!!
