Where There's Smoke... There's Not Always Fire
Yeah. I pretty much expected panic buttons to come out universally here. Yeah, it's happening. My to-do list just grew so much that I changed my last-in date from Tuesday, Feb. 10 to Wednesday, Feb. 11. That, and, I haven't told my boss yet that I'm taking next Wednesday off for a doctor's appointment and an out of town guest who needs/deserves white glove treatment. All in all, though, the announcement of my resignation has caused more protest and gnashing of teeth than I frankly expected.
And the 'hair on fire' moments. Good lord. Chill, people. As is rapidly becoming my most-oft quoted phrase: The sun rose and set each day before I began work here... and I promise, it will continue to do so after I am gone. Y'all will be okay. Really.
I really am tempted to go find some of those Staples 'Easy' buttons, and change the text to 'PANIC'. :p
And OH! Yes! It was IMMENSELY satisfying to tell our MIS department this morning of my departure. There was much wailing and moaning and 'Oh, God, you can't leave! We have so much to do! We were just getting started good!'. Uh huh. Suuuuure. K-thx-bye.
