Deciding to leave UCOS was the hardest decision I ever had to make. On one hand there was everything I've known and loved for the past ten years and on the other was excitement and adrenalin.
Jack had once told me never to get too comfortable and comfortable is exactly what I was at UCOS, if you could even still call it UCOS. Life was easy, I woke up everyday and knew I'd have a day with the boys solving a crime. Opportunities to leave weren't a rarity, with promotion offered every few months but it wasn't until Stewart Barlow's comment about UCOS being below me that I really got thinking. I managed to push the thoughts away but after Jack left it became harder and suddenly Brian was being suspended but at that point there was no opportunity.
This should be easy, I should automatically be saying yes to this amazing chance but yet something's standing in my way. Something's stopping me, I like what we do here and it gives me an enormous sense of pride when we manage to nail someone that others failed to. Not only that but I've made friends here, something I hadn't really done before but yet I know I have to go and I know thinking like this is prolonging and dwelling on the sadness that I'll feel but this is my fresh start and I'm going to have to take it.
Leavings the easy part it's the decisions that's the hardest.
