Ain't communication grand? Wink Seriously, it sounds like your boss is expecting you to break the news he doesn't want to break. What an idiot.

And Mythos, I hope you survived. Apparently the father of a friend of mine always said that whatever you do, you mustn't die before you get your retirement money - after all you've been working all your life for it. Big Grin

Although, to give him the benefit of the doubt, knowing this particular teacher, he probably did tell him - sent him a letter or something because this teacher was out of the country all summer - and he didn't bother to read it. This particular teacher is not too capable of keeping up on his end of the communication bargain.

Dear Ex-Minion,

If you had to quit, couldn't you have found a better time to do it? Had to wait until I took time off for the wedding, huh?

Sheesh.

I'm stopping in to get a signature. That is it. You will NOT waste my time with your paranoid ego-driven, coke-fueled hysterics.

Mortgage company. I don't blame him for being scared...it's a scary time for his industry. But his fear is overriding his logic.

Oh, and he never signed the damn contract, BTW.

Oy.

*sigh*

Wow - I never had that. It seems I've got the most boring job in the world. Wink

dude, do not say that until the you're at a museum and the database goes down. There are only so many Gantt charts and cups of tea you can make! I am not qualified to do anything else, so I have had THE most boring couple of days. But it's back now!

Honestly, we have the worst computers in the world. Our system *grinds* along, and we're so far from the server (on the other side of York) that everything takes ages. I waited a full five minutes for Outlook to open today. AND NO ONE HAD EMAILED ME.

Wow, I was not intending an on-topic post but look what happened!

My new agency contacted my current agency on August 22 requesting a release date. This is a very straight-forward thing - the new agency requests a certain date, and the losing agency either agrees or disagrees.

The date my new agency requested is September 13. A week from Friday. And my current agency hasn't responded yet. Considering that I cannot make arrangements for my in-processing until the date is agreed to, the delay is not acceptable. If this delays our move, I will be very, very upset...

I think I said it succinctly enough this morning: "This isn't what I was meant to do."

Unfortunately, I was in the shower when I said it.
