Christmas 08' / Last day

This caught me by surprise. When I first pulled back the wrapping paper, I saw the Korin Knife box and was very confused why Carrie would put a gift into my knife box or how she got my knife box for that matter. Then It hit me that this box was slightly bigger then my other Korin knife box. She had it engraved and everything. And, that is Robot Chicken season one underneath it.


It feels weird that this brand new knife is just sitting around my apartment waiting to be packed into my car and finally used once I land at the next place I work at. That next place will be a private island working for my brother, allowing time to work on my own place when it happens.

The last day of work was pretty much a waste of time. I apologize to anyone I didn't say goodbye to or wish them well. It was New Years Eve and only 40some reservations on the books. That's just a bad sign and nothing I really wanted to be a part of. When the main reason I quit that job walked into the kitchen flaunting her owner perfection around, I knew it was time for me to go home for good.
When you quit a job in an upper level management position, all you can really do is hang out and make sure nobody needs anything. You can't (or shouldn't) make any decisions for the company for the future or do anything that will impact the place after you're gone, I think that's why most places just let the person go and pay out there notice. I showed my replacement everything I could think of, whether or not she uses the information is totally up to her it's her place now, but all I could do was just show her what I did.
I missed out on any last day going away party to, I don't do anything involving alcohol on NY Eve, it's too dangerous.
Oh well, maybe I'll see some of them again.
