Resigning Oneself
October 22, 2007
"Well, the day has come…" I say as I smile nervously, lingering at the door of my manager's spacious office.
He smiles and jokes back with me: "What day? What has come?" I silently wonder: If I keep everything light, maybe he won't notice the fact that I'm resigning...
In the end, he did notice. And while I'm sad to leave the friends I've made here, I'm ecstatic about making the move.

Congrats again Jes! I'm so excited for you!

Wait. Wait one minute. Are you MOVING moving? Or changing jobs? Because if you are MOVING moving, and that entails moving HERE, I need to know immediately!

Okay, young lady, you have some 'splaining to do! Like Abbersnail asks, are you MOVING moving? Or just changing jobs? Because, from prior posts, I see that you and Rog are buying a house? And now you are changing jobs? So... are you staying in Dallas? Leaving Dallas? Going somewhere exciting? TELL! TELL! Please?

A little mystery is every womans prerogative...

I almost didn't want to leave a comment in sheer protest of being kept waiting for your news.
Tell already!
And congratulations! Good for you!

Ha, ha, Jes you are such a tease. At least I know the details. Congrats, I'm excited for you.

So many questions come to mind, like, where are you moving to? Have you found a job there yet? Whatever it is, I'm excited for you!

OH, THE SUSPENSE!! Come on, lady, don't keep us hanging!!

Congratulations! I've been at the same job for 28 years and there are very strong rumors my division will be sold and I am feeling this feeling of anticipatory excitement at the idea I might actually get a new job if the buyer turns out to be someone from out of this area (I wouldn't move). A new job! It is like a new life, a new world opening up! Looking forward to hearing what yours is!
Posted by: Mauigirl | October 25, 2007 04:15 PM
All right already! Spill it!

Oh, you are evil.
Update, chica!

Just found your site because of OMSH's blogroll, and I am totally in love with the design.
It's nice to have some eye candy with the writing.

Tell us where you're going -- new job, or new place?
