Two Weeks Notice

It's an interesting thing resigning from a position. For starters, when you hand over the two week notice to your boss, they kind of look at you like you're the biggest let down ever. Ironically, when lay-offs come around, they'll stab you in the back faster than you can say "ouch!" and leave you high and dry claiming they had nothing to do with it. In some cases managers will go the extra mile and lie to your face claiming they had "no idea that this was happening". To all you managers out there, simply put, that is a terrible lie. Even the top guns of Lying 501 couldn't pull that off successfully.

Two weeks notice. That's what employees do. Employees give the company a friendly two weeks notice. And, from my own research, I have found that a two weeks notice letter can be held against you in court. So if you are writing a two weeks notice...be careful.

Since my new profession is living, I've taken my two weeks notice to a whole new level. Rather than try to finish up all my work (which I will admit I tried but decided was not possible) I'm using sick days. I come in late, hours late. I leave early, hours early. I go to work with a Bartleby mentality and bum-like fashion.

Four business days left until I am completely Living as a Profession.

Today I am going to live. Are you?
