Last Day

Filed Under General | 2 Comments

The day has finally come to pack my bags at work and go on mat leave. I’ve been waiting for this day for over 9 months. I thought this day would never come and now that it is here, it doesn’t feel as good as I imagine it would be. Partially its because my work load has slow down since August so the last months has been quite light for me. Another possiblity could be my short term memory is not functioning so I don’t remember how much I want to leave my job but couldn’t because my little meatloaf is not done cooking yet.

I don’t think I’ll miss anything about working. I won’t miss forcing myself to wake up in the morning. I won’t miss riding the train to go to work. I won’t miss eating shitty food around my work. I won’t miss all the BS that comes with work. I won’t miss endless meaningless meetings. I won’t miss all the compnay parties or events. I won’t miss working late. I won’t miss rushing to the train station to catch my train. I won’t miss making shit up for my performance review that has nothing to do with my annual raise.  I’m pretty much ready to go but now that my last day is here, I don’t feel a sense of relief. Maybe it’s because I’m still technically working but from home until the baby decides to come out. Come Monday, i still have to wake up in time to log into my computer and pretend to be working.
