My new job!

Post by Umber »

I love it! The people I work with are great, the atmosphere is relaxed and fun. The day flies by and I don't even notice that I am working more hours. I am so close I come home for lunch every day. I get a big "I haven't seen you in hours" greeting from Lexie. :dogrun: I wish my family was so excited to see me!

My last day at the "old" job was sad. They had a pot luck lunch for me and thank goodness my manager let me go home after that. I have worked for her for 9 years, I bet she hugged me 5 or 6 times and said how much she appreciated me. A few of my co-workers got tears in their eyes and of course then I :cry:

One thing we know for certain, life is constant change....go with the flow and keep moving onward and upward!

Hugs!

Lori!

I'm so happy for you! I'm sure the new surroundings made the transition easier for you. It's always sad to leave friends and a job you had no intention of leaving of your own accord.

PS: Are you laughing at the new job? Hopefully, they will appreciate some smiles and a good belly laugh every few minutes! hahahah

Sure makes the day more bearable for you and those around you!

GOOD JOB!

Love,
Mars
