You really only start appreciating things once they’re gone

“I’m always surprised how easily people change their jobs these days. In our day, professions were earned over time! We spent 48 years in Irish Rail and 20 of them together, and I can’t tell you how many times I just wanted to kick the whole thing up and leave it all behind. The truth is that you’ll find it hard whatever you do, but getting better at something will only ever take time. Looking back now I’m glad we never gave up. You really only start appreciating things once they’re gone.”
