Things I'll miss about "the firm":
My dearest P. Although, I will still be seeing him for the occasional date, dinner out and/or other social occasion - so while I will be losing my much beloved work husband, he will not be gone from my life.
"Mama" a/k/a "Boo" or "Grits" - no one has ever made me laugh as loud or for as long as she does, and she has the biggest heart of anyone I've ever met. Even if she doesn't care for my hugs, she has been a dear friend to me, especially considering we haven't really known each other that long.
The staff at the Starbucks downstairs - Best. Starbucks. Ever. Wouldn't have lasted so long if it wasn't for their sweet nectar, brewed fresh every 20 minutes.
One of my clients, Bob - perhaps the sweetest man ever that I never dated.
Oh, and the other wonderful people that are slaves to the man...I will miss their company and commiseration skills...A horrible workplace experience can bring out the hidden comedian/enne in all of us, and I'm pretty sure that it did. Especially in December. Good times.
Um, yeah. That's it. That's pretty much all I'm going to miss.
Things I'm THRILLED to leave behind:
The evil overlord of darkness. And his ridiculous wife. And their stupidly-named children. And the fountain in their front yard. I could go on, but I won't. But I'd like to.
MORTGAGE BANKING. Need I say more?
Representing an industry that doesn't understand why legislatures won't permit them to charge 18% interest on a first mortgage loan. Made me want to take a shower.
The D6 bus and the hour-plus commute. UGH.
The freezer door slamming into my wall and shaking my computer. Doesn't sound so bad, but have it happen 28 times a day and see how you like it.
Tiny paychecks and no bonuses, combined with a disingenuous boss who spends like Britney Spears on a bender.
Au revoir.
