Gah I'm already falling behind in my posts, my apologies to my 2 readers. So I turned in my notice today at work--it's still pretty surreal to think that I will be leaving. My boss took it pretty well, but I think it freaked him out since he had NO IDEA this was happening. Keep doing stuff like normal, then it will hit me that I only have 9.5 more days here. Man I grew up in this place! I find myself reminiscing about the milestones of youth vs. work environment, such as:

My third day of work ever when I was so hungover from the night before and my boss caught me with my face planted on my cool, smooth desk, NOT ASLEEP I might add, but just because, "It felt good."

and the classic:

Hauled into the office by le Boss because of scandously tight capri pants and recommended to wear clothing that was more flattering to my figure. Shut up, I still had the freshman fifteen, okay twenty-five.

the timeless:

Interviewing for the job in the first place and getting horrendously lost trying to find the building. Traipsed around the Georgia Tech campus in brand new shoes that were already killing me when two guys start yelling, "Lady! Lady! Hey Lady!" after me. I finally turn around and bellow, "WHAT?" and they say, "Do you know you're bleeding?" whereupon I look down to discover that, yes, Monty Python-like fountains of blood are squirting out of my heels with every step, leaving a delightful trail of goo the whole way down the sidewalk.

On another note, I just got totally shot down by an industry company that I needed info from (ah, you see I am still doing work here!). I was like can I have any information at all? And he was like well yes, I mean no, I mean sort of. Me: um do you have any ranges? Him: yes, but I can't share them with you. Me: are these employees on contract? Him: some are, and some aren't. THEN he says, do you have any other questions I can answer for you? !!!!! I pondered replying, nope, I'm fresh out of questions that you won't answer. I IM'ed Kevin about this and he totally one-upped me on what I should have said:

enkidu788:
you should have said yea, what rhymes with dick
enkidu788: Click

I knew there was a reason why I liked that boy. Peace out.
