She's a goner

Right. SORRY SORRY for no update on what happened. I am too busy even to manage my own blog.


So... I went in on Friday, printed out 3 copies of my resignation letter and waited for the Management Team to get out of their daily important-people-catch-up. They were taking a particularly long time on this occasion which did nothing for the butterflies straight from hell that decided to relocate to my gut. My tactic was this: wait till my main Manager got back from her desk, tell her that I needed to show her something, THEN lead her to the HR Managers desk where I would then quickly whisk them into the nearest meeting room.

As soon as I hit the HR Managers desk they both knew something was up. I sat them both down and told them that they had to read the letter because I was too nervous to talk. They both asked if I was resigning before even opening the document. I said nothing.

My direct boss read the letter out loud. It was short and sweet. It detailed the nature of why I was leaving and the reasons why I had decided to go ahead and take the leap. They couldn't really argue with what I had explained and after getting through the letter they both knew that there was no talking me around. They told me that they would like me to contact them as soon as I am looking for work again and naturally I was pretty surprised. As you already know, I was pretty nervous about what the outcome would be in this situation and was even prepared to be 'walked' from the building. Seems I got 'em on a good day. There's a tip for all you folk out there wanting to quit your jobs, do it on a Friday. Fridays get better results! Everybody loves Fridays! People are even better looking on Fridays (not that that will help with your job quitting situation, but it is good to know).

I must say, I had a tear in me eye when I handed in my notice. I do really love my job and I have a lot of great friends at my workplace. Some of which are now probably catching up on this blog, sorry for leaving you out until now friends, just couldn't take the chance.

So that's it. Into the mthrfkn wild!
