Yesterday, I was hired by a very appealing corporation to return to the work of my profession.

I have been away 15 years. Only recently have I seriously considered holding down a job I wonder how long I should wait before determining that I am ready for work? I know I cannot go back to being a software engineer or systems administrator because I have been away for too long. So I also need to figure out what my next career will be. Big decisions are almost here for me to make.
But back to the topic, I agree things can get much better. I have been there before. I found I needed to keep slugging it out with help from the doctor and be patient.
