Well, this is probably the most difficult post to write I've ever written on this site. I have been part of this community more than six years at this point (including 4+ as a moderator) but circumstances in my life mean that it is time for me to take a step back and resign from being a moderator.
Realistically there are many reasons contributing to this, not the least of which just turned a month old in the enderland household.
I am immensely proud of the site that The Workplace has become. Many of you are too workplace-young to remember the early days and overwhelming skepticism most other SE users had regarding our site success. This site succeeded in spite of a lot of long odds. From the early beta all those years ago to now, it's been a wild ride, filled with adventure.
This site will continue to help users - not just those answering questions but the millions of people who are "reached" by questions and answers every day. We consistently have 40k-50k page visits every workday (suspiciously, less on Friday and much less on the weekends..) which means many real people are having their lives changed for the better by the Workplace.
Folks, it has been an honor to serve as a moderator here.
