I remember that point where I had just done my command, and thought if "i left now" I would probably be happier in the long run. Sad to realise my intuition back then was correct. Many friends did leave, and almost to a man they are glad they did. Certainly they seem happier than any of us, never mind their families overall happiness. Wish I could turn the clock back. Oh well, almost finished, so not particularly relevant at this point.
