Starting Fresh | Job Change in your 50's
I’m Starting A New Job in My Late 50s, Frankly, It’s a Scary Prospect
Change is not always easy, but sometimes necessary
My grandson is 3 years old, he often puts his shoes on the wrong feet. He walks about in them and seems to know that something isn’t right, but he continues walking, till we tell him that it is best to swap them around. He often refuses and soon gets used to the odd feeling.

However, work has become an uncomfortable place of late.
