Lifestyles of the poor and nameless

Well, I gave my notice on the apartment and all is well. They're actually going to let me leave without problems! So I have to be out by October 15th. Next hurdle: giving notice at the job. That probably won't go so easily. I am debating whether to give more than 2 weeks notice. My last day will be Oct. 14th. Oct. 10th is a holiday and then my boss starts her vacation on the 13th. She's going to flip her wig when I give notice because there's so much new work coming into our department. But that's not my problem. I said I would stay until a specific project is completed. That project ends this Tuesday, so I should be clear to go.

And did I tell you that the powers that be got wind of my possible resignation and offered me a transfer to another department?! Those punks. Same position, new boss. The transfer would take about a month and a half before it's effective. I just can't wait anymore. Plus it's not doing anything for my career. I'd be better off going back to NYC and doing volunteer legal work than taking that transfer position....at least I'd be getting some real attorney experience.

It's kinda scary going back without another job lined up....but at the same time, it's soooo liberating. I can't wait to have some time off!
