Notice
To my boss:"I'd like to give my resignation."
"What? Why?"
"It's a great place (blatant lie) but I've found a better job opportunity."
"Oh no...I'm going to miss you (polite lie)."
"I'm going to miss you, too (total lie)."
To my co-worker:
"I have something to tell you."
"What's wrong???"
"I've found another job."
"Fuuuuuck. What am I going to DO?" Eyes rolling towards ceiling in dramatic silence. Then:
"What I am going to DO??? Shit. Can't you wait another month?"
"Two weeks was the maximum time. I really tried to extend it (truth)."
"I'm utterly fucked. It's ok. It's OK. I'll figure this out."
It's been a rough week for the people in my office.

Well, your co-worker didn't waste too much time getting to the important part, which is worrying about herself.
Nah. There is reason for her to freak out. I'm being a bit of a shit in regards to the company. What with leaving at such an inconvenient time.
Well, they can't blame you for bettering yourself. You're not the only one in this predicament, remember! I'm sure things will get by just fine; they always do.
Hello, Mirage Chopper. Thank you, things have picked up considerably now that I am training my replacement girl. She's fresh from college and buttermilk innocent. I feel a tad bad for her because I just know she's going to end up totally corrupted in that company. But I've only known her for a day. So, who knows!
By the way, isn't Chicago awesome now that the wind isn't trying to slice through us like an icicle?
Yes, it IS wonderful! I didn't think this last winter was ever going to end. I teach, but outside most of the day, and it seemed like forever standing out there in the wind. I'm glad its over; HELLO SUN!
