My time with EM was an enjoyable one and at the time I was volunteered to leave I must admit that was a dark period due to poor actor actions / fabrications / trying to justify decisions.
One year later and the darkness has lightened, life has improved beyond all measure, work-life balance is normal, family act as one, career progression is given vs requested and I am surrounded with personnel who just want the best. Sounds foreign but leaving O&G has given me a different outlook, prospect, perspective and refreshed happiness thats been absent.
You may not be able to change your current situation if it’s a dissatisfied one, but you can control your next. There is life away from the O&G sector, you just need to look for it!
