Stop in for a cup of coffee
Love it, I did some reflecting and think that my old job got stale because I wasn't seeing it directly affect the users for the good. It just felt like I was doing mindless work.
Now I own a whole website for academic learning and I get to see tweets and blog posts of how our training has changed people's lives, helped them get nnew jobs, promotions, make more money, start businesses, etc etc. It's awesome, I also am now a "User Experienced" based designer, so I get to focus on building things for a variety of people with disabilities such as color blindness, while also keeping it a great experience for everyone else.
