Exits and Entrances
Bonjour, bonjour my readers (all 2.3 of you). A few life updates for me.
1) Today was the LAST day of my job!!! Sometimes it feels so good just to QUIT!!! Heck, I was already cleaning my desk yesterday and throwing a bunch of junk away (just a couple of papers someone may need someday, but it won’t be me). I was ITCHING to leave all day! My boss tried to dump some stuff on me at the last minute but he couldn’t keep me from leaving.
2) Tomorrow I go to London and Paris. I’m going to show my solidarity with my British brothers by: having some fish and chips; drinking a Guiness; watch some soccer (and fight some hooligans); and who knows what else?? The first part of the week will be in Paris, the city of Love (and racially-motivated riots) and the second part will be spent in the city of colour/labour/theatre/you get the idea.
I’m really excited about my new job. I start in December! Yes, yes, I know this is my 5th job (OH wait.. it’s my 6th!!!). Hey, I always say jobs are like dating/relationships. You gotta find a right fit! Otherwise it just doesn’t work out. Hmm.. let’s see if I can carry this analogy:
1st job: Man, when things started out she was so great! It wasn’t much about her personality, but she just looked awesome. Unfortunately, after a year the relationship just began falling apart. Her life fell apart and suddenly she didnt’ want me anymore. Well her attitude was getting piss-poor by that time anyway.
2nd job: Things were cool until one day she totally freaked out. She thought I cheated on her! And I couldn’t convince her otherwise. Screw that. What a nut.
3rd job: I was getting desperate by this point. I admit it! I didn’t plan this to be long term. She was supposed to hold me over until I found something better. In the end the relationship didnt’ work and it just fell apart.
4th job: Standards totally lowered by this point. Better than my last one, but worse than the first two. Not putting much effort into this relationship cuz I know it’s going nowhere.
5th job: I thought there was potential but after a year in it I figured out that it’s really going nowhere. Oh well.. I’m getting used to this.
And now, the 6th job! I’m really positive and excited about it. All the people I met were great and the company seems quite promising. I’m hoping that this will be the right fit. After any sort of dating around, sometimes you feel like you want to settle.
