Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Well, mostly because I hate talking on the phone, I'm tired of talking about leaving, and I don't really feel like being polite, also, I don't wanna, stop poking me or I'll tell mom!

I sort of remember my first exit interview. I was doing PC support and was moving to a software company so I go into development. They tried to tempt me to stay by saying they were thinking of switching me from PC support to mainframe COBOL programming.

RIO! Congrats on the new move! Now we are in the same time zone! I thought this time zone had gotten especially pretty lately.

I've wondered all my adult life how to get paid for doing nothing, but I think I have a plan.
1) Convert to Christian Science.
2) Become a pharmacist.
(Unspoken: 3) buy Xbox and practice evil laughter.)

When I quit AT&T they offered me stock options to stay. After I left AT&T's stock dropped more than 50%, so those options would have been worthless.

Welcome to NYC, Rio! Now if only I hadn't moved 3000 miles the opposite directlon last summer, I could take you out to a new city lunch. Alas, I am no longer on the Right Coast.
