Today was Mom’s and my last day official day at our former employer. A number of corporate refugees gathered for one last lunch on the company expense account. A couple of short-timers (people who signed up for the 6-month extension, which is down to 4 months now) were there to pick up the check because what can the company do about it? Fire them? “Oh, if only!” they said in a wistful voice.
I’m hoping that now that it’s all finally really over, I’ll be able to concentrate on my new work more effectively. Yessiree, I’m sure it’s all going to be smooth sailing from here on out…
