Not only am I leaving my place of work, but my favorite person in IT/IS
is leaving too. She is the best one up there -- most responsive, most knowledgeable, friendliest, best troubleshooter . . .

Our firm treats people like shit. And like chattel. And management is a joke.

Best part is - she wants to keep in touch with me! All this time I have thought she was terrific, and it turns out she thought I was terrific. :blush: Who knew?

And -- I'm thrilled for her -- she's moving back to New Zealand!

:woohoo:

1. the firm is losing big time.
I'm happy for you K, and I'm glad you're able to establish a friendship even although she's moving so far away. You could vacation there ! :)

3. berth!
now's your opportunity! keep contact, pack up the SO and the wildlife & scoot on out of this cesspool!


kidding; there's a 6 month quarantine on any domestic beast.

but Noo Zeak is 'sposed to be gorgeous, + they won't help the Imperial Legions in their war of conquest.

4. Don't think I haven't thought about escaping.
Two big problems, though:

1. our families

2. quarantines

:shrug:

But at least now i have someone to see whom i know when i go there! :hi:
