The Notice

Well, I finally did it. I put in my notice at the company where I have worked for nearly three years. I spent two years at the Oshkosh store, where I worked the last month of high school and the first two years of college. Then the company opened up a store in Appleton, so I transferred there. In the past few months, I have only been working one day a week for the sole purpose of keeping a benefit where the company will help me out with school. I finally decided it was no longer worth it. That one day a week was one day too many. So, after much deliberation, I gave it up. I could make much more money taking up another day at my main job.

I suppose I should clarify that technically I put in for a "leave of absence", citing my next semester at school as my reason. I wanted to keep my options open, in case I feel like working there over the summer for some extra cash.

I won't miss the job at all, but there are a few people that I will miss a lot. I will also miss my boss. I know that sounds rather odd, as most people hate their bosses, but I actually liked mine. She was great about my very particular scheduling needs and giving me the jobs I hated least. If I decide to come back in the summer, I hope they are still there.

It's been a great almost three years, but it was definately time to move on.
