I think I have PTSD from moving.
It took me awhile to get over the PTSD from my last move 8 years ago.
This time I'm moving out of town and starting a new job.
On Tuesday evening they told me I needed to take a drug test on Wednesday. Of course I had an everything bagel with poppyseeds for breakfast Tuesday morning. So I mentioned that to the recruiting company, and now I think they're suspicious of me. Or I could just be paranoid. At least I can retake the test once I'm in KC, but googling says that one bagel would be unlikely to cause me to fail the drug screen.
Or maybe I'm just convinced something has to go wrong with this move and new job thing.
Depends on how you sleep in a motel. I would probably drive straight through and get it behind me.
That's crossed my mind too.
Originally they wanted me there by 3:30 or 4:00 Saturday so they could check me in to the new apartment, but today they told me if I arrive late they'll leave keys out for me. That way I could sleep later on Saturday.
Wow, tommyrot, go you! Taking two days sounds like the smart move if you are already worn out from packing and making decisions and so forth.
It occurred to me just yesterday that it's kinda fucked up that I can say in all reasonableness "it's only $2000" about a potential loss of revenue due to a decision made in my work process and have everyone just nod like, yeah, that's not much when my paychecks are less than that.
Capitalism, man. How are we doing on getting rid of it?
I would. Amount varies on how much of a pain it is to move the stuff. Like sofa/bed up stairs vs boxes on level ground.
There are three of them. $40 that they can split?
I let Squeaky out of the bathroom. She's freaking about the empty apartment.
Poor Squeaky, animals don't care for the whole moving thing much.
Many calming pets to Squeaky. Her house disappeared while she was on the litterbox!
