Of course I have to wait still!
LOL I can't win, even to resign. My boss is in a meeting right now and will prolly be there for a while. I'm just passing the time by doing my timesheets, which I will NOT miss once I am gone.
I feel pretty good today. I actually had a doc's appt this morning and talk to him about it (for the price I pay it was worth it!). We looked at everything in detail, my schedule, my mental and physical health (I'm still on anti-biotics and my face is doing ok but still itches and hurts) as well all the other things I need to do before I start this job permanently (b/c I'm already doing some hours for it next week after this job!). All told I have decided to make Weds the 14th my last day instead of Friday. It is less notice but I need to do what is right for my health, my family and also what is right for my new job. I have spent my life trying to please everyone, often at my own expense. Given that I need to start my new job right away and some personal family factors I am standing up for myself and MY time for once. I have given more than my all at this job. When everyone including the HR person says that they thought I would have left months and months ago and that I've "lasted longer" than anyone else in my position (one guy quit after 2 weeks) that is a red flag. Not taking the time I need to keep myself healthy (and sane!) would be allowing my boss to exploit me further.
No more. I'm a professional. I'm giving notice, tying up loose ends and finishing what I can in the time alloted. I'm still doing more than what I legally have to or need to do. If he is not happy b/c of the time then that is too bad b/c I am happy with the best solution I could come up with. Everyone keeps telling me to do what I need to do and do what is right for me. This is it, like it or lump it.
I am standing up for lil ole moi aujourd'hui (today) and boy it feels good. Now if only he'd get out of his meeting so I can starting letting people know! LOL
On a lighter note I will be having a lovely, relaxing and fun weekend. Sangria may need to be in order... ahhhhhhh :-)
