Searching

So, as a matter of serendipity I talked to a recruiter a week or so ago. I wasn't expecting to talk to him, but it came up and the conversation was good. Following that conversation, I contacted several other people whom I had talked to back when I was doing my last job search. These conversations have gone quite good as well.

Coming out of these conversations I have concluded that I am indeed underpaid and oversubscribed in my current job.

This has all come after a particularly trying time at my current job. Unrealistic time tables and expectations have pushed my frustration level very high. On one hand, I feel compelled to meet expectations (just because that's the type of person that I am). At the same time, I know that there's no way I can actually meet these expectations. This leaves me feeling that I need to escape.
