Oh, coincidence. I did this about twelve minutes ago. Yes, I've just tendered my resignation. I work in a large, large company. The place is okay, the people are good, the code is fine I guess. I just wanted a change of direction. I started in videogames, and compared to that, this job feels far more... stuffy. And boring. Anyhow, I wanted a shot at starting my own business writing web apps. I literally do not know: javascript, ruby (therefore rails), much of linux, or webservers (well, I've heard of a whole bunch). But hey, I have good savings, I have low rent, I have a nice computer, and in addition - unlike when I was working in videogames - I have a sleep-cycle that has me up at 8:00am every day. As for the actual experience, I've just informed my direct lead, and we'll have to talk to the head of our department later today. I guess I'll let you know how it goes! |
