    Thanks again everyone.

    I started the conversations on my possible transition out due to a offer on the table and that didn't go too well yesterday. It's pretty obvious me leaving has a huge impact. I'm in for a difficult decision in the next few days, especially if that second opportunity I interviewed for also lands a offer too.

    And just for clarity, where I'm currently working is more about the groundbreaking stuff we are working on that is causing the difficulties for me. We are doing something very few people are doing in our vertical with the data. Having to leave that is also causing the most difficulty. These other opportunities are really going to give me more exposure to traditional DBA experiences while also working with seasoned DBA's that will greatly help me in my development. While it surely will be a change of pace, I think it would be a welcomed one as I told them, especially in traditional OLTP systems where my experience is lacking the most.

    I wish this had been posted in the Careers section. All these comments would've been great advice for people who don't regularly peruse The Thread.
