GC as a whole may recall that I quit my last job after a standoff regarding leave. Technically, I burned a bridge. The majority of the people who responded told me things like "Good for you!" and praised me for following my heart and leaving a job where I wasn't respected.
One poster basically said what I did was irresponsible and dishonorable (or something lame like that, lol).
Well, over a year later (and not without a little hardship) I am finally in the job I was meant to be in! I am still friends with several people who still work there and one provided me with a glowing recommendation for my current job. (Side note: When my position there became open AGAIN for the second time in a year, my name was thrown around in meetings to possibly be asked back. Don't ask how I know.)
I moved away from direct service and into development (finally!) and I am able to call my old job at any time and ask the development director for best practices and whatnot. (It doesn't happen often, but I'm not afraid to do so.)
Just an update.....I thought of my own resignation experience and wanted to share.
