Happy Sunday...

Got on the motorcycle for a bit today... rode to nowhere in particular but did have to stop at work to let my Sunday crew know about my "resignation".

They weren't happy but were supportive. It's a good crew overall and it'll be tough to leave, but it's the right thing to do.

While riding, was just taking in some of the scenery - landscapes on houses, clouds in the distance and the foothills to the west. If you don't ride, it's worth learning just to experience it in the open instead of in a "cage".

Need to ride more.

2 Weeks and Counting




Announcment of my "resignation" today to 1/2 of my team. I will get the rest of the team on Sunday. Reaction ranged from shock to disbelief to anger. Couple of more leads on new positions and we'll see how it goes.

After I'm gone, I'll be able to give the team more of the "real" story - ie - how I was going to be let go anyway. My "resignation" is a way for me to save face on my way out the door.

JAs TidBit of the Day - NEVER BURN BRIDGES when leaving a company. It's a small world out there and you never know when you'll need a recommendation, reference or job lead. Always keep the doors and communication going.

Happy Friday - now where's my damn beer?!?!
