Well, so far the new job seems like a great place.  Everyone has been very professional, and all three of the stores I've been in were well maintained and extremely attractive.  What a change of pace for me!!  My new employer hired me to create enough room to open new stores, and my old employer hired me to clean up messes.

I can say I haven't talked to anyone who feels abused just yet either, and that's reassuring.  Admittedly, though, there is a fair amount of stress knowing that I'm learning something completely new and competing with people who have been doing this for sometimes as much as 20 years. 

Happy to be where I'm at, either way.
