SOMETIMES THE EARTH UNDER YOU IS MOVING, AND EVERYTHING AROUND YOU IS SWIRLING AND CHANGING, BUT YOU ARE NOT CHANGING. DO YOU CHOOSE TO STAY THE SAME? DO YOU ADJUST BY MOVING IN WAYS AND DIRECTIONS THAT MAY MAKE LIFE BETTER FOR YOU, BUT TRULY ARE NOT YOU?

Your friends, who work at the same job with you, and support you emotionally, move to other jobs. Then, your supervisors, with whom you get along, get promoted and move on. The new supervisors and the company start wanting you to change how you perform your job, and change how your performance is measured. Do accommodate all the changes, by changing yourself and staying, or, do you move on?
