I work for an enginnering company as a drafter. My degree is in industrial design but I want to get into structural engineering. My current boss took me on about 1year ago and has been good to me but I dont get to do alot of structural projects as we do prodominately mechanical things. I have been offered a job with a structural engineering company as a drafter and they support further education. I feel like Im betraying my current boss if I take the job as he has invested money and time into me to get me to the skill level Im at, and he has only just recently started billing me out. I dont know how to tell him that Im leaving.
Blu is absolutely correct.
Also, you HAVE to do what is in your best interest. That by no means means to forget about those who helped you.
Make sure you tell your boss how much you appreciate what he has taught you, but it's time for you to move on in order to reach your goals. |
