I've never gotten to bang a coworker, and given that since at my new job I'll be surrounded by people who would rat me out to my wife in a heartbeat, this won't be my big chance.<BR/><BR/>Ms. PhD, sounds like you and I should have done the Freaky Friday thing. I could have "accidentally" offended all the coworkers you hate with my inappropriate comments, and you could have settled into a workday in your jammies. Let's set something up next time.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02233465085998331063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6570740.post-39100481228845092372008-07-04T09:07:00.000-07:002008-07-04T09:07:00.000-07:00Great post.

I have to live vicariously through your blog.<BR/><BR/>And I so look forward to the day when I too get to tell everyone the truth- that I love the work, and it's the only thing that made me put up with all their unbearable personalities!<BR/><BR/>Would so much rather work from home in my pajamas...Ms.PhDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06542602867472447035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6570740.post-3496670636567320752008-07-04T07:45:00.000-07:002008-07-04T07:45:00.000-07:00I had a rather awkward goodbye lunch AFTER I left ...I had a rather awkward goodbye lunch AFTER I left a company. Awkward because my boss, who was already banging my replacement, brought his wife to it. At least the focus wasn't on me, right?Avery Grayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15459396609964285392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6570740.post-26960910584809508802008-07-03T16:28:00.000-07:002008-07-03T16:28:00.000-07:00Lovey, yeah, prolonged goodbyes are just ridiculou...Lovey, yeah, prolonged goodbyes are just ridiculous. My final lap here at work will be more like the case where you say goodbye to someone, and then still have to walk down the hall, and into the parking lot before you actually part ways with them.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02233465085998331063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6570740.post-71332433707290680712008-07-03T09:19:00.000-07:002008-07-03T09:19:00.000-07:00Poor Mike.

Then, I had to return to the place to get my last paycheck.<BR/><BR/>New job will be better. :)loveyhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10370839906294740311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6570740.post-20989566828167923122008-07-03T07:42:00.000-07:002008-07-03T07:42:00.000-07:004th Sis, nah, no one was an ass there, unless you'...4th Sis, nah, no one was an ass there, unless you're referring to me.<BR/><BR/>Lola, I'm the coolest guy? This is your favourite blog? Me thinks you need to get out more, or at least go visit some other pages on the web. It's a great big world out there!<BR/><BR/>Sue, I WAS faking it.

A goodbye lunch with someone who you don't like and who doesn't like you<BR/>3. A goodbye lunch a week before you leave<BR/>4. A goodbye lunch where your thankyou speech makes everyone look shiftily at their feet.<BR/><BR/>Keep up the good work. I can't wait for the future stories when you actually have to interact with coworkers ALL DAY!Lolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08929723020089651115noreply@blogger.com
