I'm largely done RE where I used to work, and am pretty much ready to start in the new area.
As I was taking my last box of crap away I realised I probably wouldn't see certain members of my now former management chain again before I start.
By rights I probably should have said good-bye. But given their churlish treatment of moi, passive aggressive hostility and manifest failure to actually manage or respond to my needs I decided against it.
So I snuck out.
Yes, I am admittedly pathetic. It was like leaving a breaking up group house and not saying good-bye to a flatmate.
UPDATE:
This is not to blow my own trumpet. Thought I admit I do that now and then. But today when I borrowed the work car I noticed it was nearly out of fuel. The rule of thumb is that if it's down to a third you fill it up. Some of those involved in administering the car's admin are not pleasant people. They get upset when people don't do that. I easily could have returned the car without having done it. I wanted to in fact. But, no, I still went and filled it up. Why? Because it was the right thing to do.
Okay - it's a bit of a trumpet blow - but it would be nice if more people in the white collar world actually did the right thing.

ReplyDeleteI cleaned and packed up my desk yesterday (office wide move). It's the tidiest any desk of mine has been in over 11 years.
