Joe - It already is, I'm walking around smiling more. I can focus on other things. FGIS - I'm not going to burn anything, but I'm also not going to go above and beyond for them in the next three and a half weeks. Heather - For some reason I'm not surprised that you're a bridge burner. TUB - There's really two schools of thought on the whole bridge burning isn't there? I'm a firm believer in karma, so I'm going to try to keep mine in good shape. Erin – I’m currently busting my ass to make sure my lectures are outstanding!

Then, the heavy weight of unemployment. But wait! You already have another yob! A perfect scenario. Here's some free advice: Going forward, I'd be cautious about burning bridges on the way out. It could bite you in the ass somewhere down the road. I speak from experience. First the euphoria. Then, the heavy weight of unemployment. But wait! You already have another yob! A perfect scenario.

He doesn't tend to respond well to 'no'. Cat - Thanks. Courtney - They will be, I know you've struggled lately. That's probably building up karma for an outstanding job for you somewhere out on the horizon. NATUI - I have to give four weeks notice and as far as I know I have to work it. But that doesn't mean I have to be an obedient drone. Think Office Space post hypnosis. I also have some sick days to use up. I think I feel a cold coming on. Xbox - I didn't really make the decision, it was made for me in a sense. They put me in an untenable situation. I may be paranoid, but I think it was intentional. NS & Tysdaddy - Thanks! Dr. O'C - I'll be working at Target thank you very much. Gwen - Thanks. I guess I just don't want this to become a public whining page. Carolyn - It is indeed. Chris - Oh good, another 'sensible' woman to tell me what to do ;) SIS - I know. Ginny - Glad I could be of service.
