Today was incredibly anticlimactic. I was all set, all riled up to talk to my HR department and hand in my letter of resignation. I'd been thinking about this day obsessively for the past 2 weeks. Wondering what it would be like, what they would say? About half an hour after the day started I got an email saying that our HR supervisor would be out today. Hmm...ok, that was who I was going to talk to. My supervisor and the supervisor above her are both out this week. I've already talked to my supervisor over the phone so she knew what was going on, but as far as I know no one else at work knows. Today was to make it official. With 3 out of the 4 people gone, I had one person left who I could possibly give notice to. Our executive director. Wouldn't you know...by 1 pm she still hadn't gotten into work yet. Not sure if she was out doing meetings or flexing her time from a meeting last night, but needless to say she was not in. So I ended the day rather passive aggressively, leaving my letter of resignation in the Executive Director's box along with an email that I sent to her, CCing the other 3 people.
So I guess that's it. 1 day down, 3 more to go.
I said goodbye to 2 of my girls today. It was actually a lot harder than I thought. I realized that the reason I'm leaving isn't them at all and I'm going to miss them. I still have about 8-10 more people to talk to before I'm completely done. This part is sort of sad and leaves me sentimental...

Hmmmmm, I was thinking about you all day. Kind of a disappointing end huh?
We just had a big meeting with those of us 'senior' members at work to do some brainstorming on how to fix the broken system. We'll see if things change!
BTW, we still on for Saturday?
i hate anticlimactic. hate it. i would almost prefer a negative experience to one that leaves me feeling numb.
but breathe a sigh of relief...maybe it could have been a lot worse?
