my last day

Well it is finally here. My last day at the firm. My goodness how time flies. Well actually in this case time did not fly. I suppose it is due to the fact that I wasn't "having fun". But whatever the reason is I have felt every single waking moment I have spent sitting in this office. I don't feel the relief that I was anticipating feeling, perhaps that is because I haven't been able to break things or curse people out. I think it is impossible for me to inflict the kind of pain on the firm that they inflicted on me, so why bother? I read something somewhere once that said long, boring, miserable days were a positive thing, that way life doesn't slip by. So I guess I will just tell myself that as I try to ignore the fact that I wasted oh sooooooo many hours here doing nothing.

Although I am EXTREMELY excited to be getting the fuck out of here I have done some thinking today and it isn't all that bad.

so below is a list of things I will miss:

1. Janelle

2. Free cookies at 10:00am and 3:00pm in the kitchen.

3. Getting hung up on. Although I think it is very rude to hang up on a person and slam the phone down in their ear, it is just slightly less annoying than having to readjust in my seat and take a message. I assume that deranged people wont be calling and hanging up on me at my new job which means I will have to do more taking messages or god forbid answering their questions myself.

4. Lack of dignity. Yes it might seem like a very odd thing to miss but when you are treated like shit is gives you perspective, it makes you realize how unimportant most people who think they are important are. I hope I don't forget that.

5. Christmas bonus. I don't think that needs any explanation.

Yeah, that is probably about it. But I really will miss those cookies. Anyway I am almost done being stressed out about everything in life and in about 48 hours I will be flying the friendly skies. I don't even think there is anything left for me to worry about. Well that's not true, but I will worry about that when I get back.
