It's very strange to be sitting here finishing up projects, asking people what they want or need from my files. And they don't know that I'm leaving. Very strange, very unnerving. I am determined, however, to leave everything in the best possible condition as I still consider Friday my last day - the boss has disagreements with that and wants to talk about it more tomorrow. In a way, I'm very relieved that there is finally a resolution - this has been hard the last few months and I've been wanting to leave. I thought I was mentally prepared, but I wasn't, not at all - but it was more the way things were done than anything else. But I am leaving on good terms - performance has never been the issue, only distance. They've offered to help me find another job with the company that's actually housed out there so I no longer have to telecommute and I am grateful for that. And I do need motivation for another job - so maybe this is what I need to get started, to just start being aggressive about job opportunities next May now. We'll see what happens. To say I'm bummed would be a minor understatement, but hey, things could and have been worse. There's an opportunity in here - I just have to be able to find and see it.
