Afternoon.

We've been avoiding everyone...and I mean everyone since this started.

I've never been so happy to be mostly antisocial.
If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

I'm with ya Nate.  On both counts.

Work called.  Either I come into the office to work tomorrow, or I come in tomorrow and turn in the computer.

It's the end of the road I suppose...

Any chance they're bluffing?

So...that means you're fired...

they do realize they'll be responsible for unemployment benefits...

right? [evil]

Either way, good luck Stuart.

No chance on the bluff.  Owner is opinionated and stubborn, so I knew this was inevitable...  I ran it out for as long as I could.  3:30 this afternoon they locked me out of the company laptop...

So, I switch computers and started working for my other gig on their dime.

Going in tomorrow and drop off their laptop & get fired for only the second time in my life.

Yay!

I will, however, suggest that you skip the eggs and go straight to the vodka. [thumbsup]
100% this.

On your terms.  They failed and will now cut off their nose to spite their face.  I congratulate you on standing your ground.

Morning.  Thanks all.  Slept for sh*t last night.  I'll likely nap this afternoon to make up for it now that I can.

Went super smooth.  Didn't care for being “walked out”, but that's minor.  Moving onward & upward.  I've had a weird relationship with jobs/work my whole life.  Time to reconstruct that more on my own terms.

For instance, work at home...  I doubt this is the end-all, but a new chapter for sure.

Hello . . .

Stu, good[?] for you, they don't apprecieate you knowledge and experience and want you to be exposing your life for 'their' benefit, you're better at home

OON, Enzo was in vet hospital for past 4 days, his liver again, this issue was caused when he was younger and chased toads and put them in his mouth, it was explained to me that the poison is like a drug ...

Speaking of vets, little fraidy dog goes in for a dental tomorrow.  It'll be traumatic for both of us but necessary.


I heard other things going on in the world tomorrow as well.  May have to turn the telly on.  And get some champagne.


Only because it'll be humpday.  Yep that's all.
