One non-HBP moment
Jul. 18th, 2005 07:40 pmNow that the book is out and I cannot actually be spoiled, I've turned anonymous commenting back on, though it's still screened.
I've just gone back to my office for the last time, to pick up a few last things. I find I'm not sad, because I was so unhappy there for so long (really, the last two years). I am sad, though, that my goodbye to my beloved now-ex-boss wasn't as nice as I would have liked. He's gone off in some way I don't understand completely, cracking under the pressure I expect, and while I do feel badly about leaving him in this state I don't feel guilty as I gave so much notice, worked as hard and as smart as I knew how, and turned my work over to my replacement with three weeks overlap. I feel lousy that this is what is going on, but also glad that it isn't my problem anymore, and confident that there was nothing more I could have done.
However, speaking of all of that, I did give this LJ to one person at work. Some of you may have heard me refer to him as "my metrosexual officemate" and that's another reason I've turned anon commenting back on. Yes, I warned him about the adult content—which in and of itself is odd; most of my RL friends know I've been, well, creating adult content since I was about 14 but of course no one I work with knows that.
Well, hopefully he's not squicked, is all I can say.
