won’t feel a thing

Give Me Novacaine / Green Day
so i got a new job.
as of next week i’m going to be working for a bigger hospital, with better benefits, and in a department that is not open 24 hours a day. add in 16 paid holidays, an hour lunch, 100% paid college tuition (not reimbursement, paid up front), and people who are not only excited to have me work for them but do not pretend that they know everything and that i should be happy to lick their shoes for a $200 annual bonus. i feel that this could be a step in the right direction.
i was so ridiculously excited just handing in my letter of resignation, helped greatly by Camrynn who lent me hers and I tweaked it to be mine. It was so pretty that when I printed it off, I just wanted to read it a couple more times to feel the realness of it. I just wanted to pick my boss up, put her in her office that very minute so that I could hand in my resignation without waiting any longer.
“You can come back here and work for us if things don’t work out.” I’d rather have someone slowly remove each and every one of my finger nails.
“Thank you, I appreciate that.”
I wanted to jump on top of my boss’s desk and shout, “IN YOUR FACE, IN YOUR FACE!” and then proceed to my “manager’s” office and put dirty underwear on her head. neither of them can put their work off on me any longer.
my only heartache is the people. the sweet people that i work WITH every day. the ones that I have come to see as a part of my life. and i will miss them more than i could ever say.
and so i plan to take all of them with me. they just don’t know it yet.
Congrats on the new job!! I want to get out of mine sooooo so so bad! But I’m to afraid of losing the benefits mainly. It’s what’s kept me here for so many years. But I’d really love to leave. I’d also like to stab my boss to death with a plastic spoon, but, which choice seems more of an acceptable decision?
… yeah, I agree… the spoon.
