Work

So...on January 30th I quit my job and gave a two week notice...actually a two weeks and two day notice...which made today my last day. Today I am very sad...yeah I know it sounds so stupid that I could be sad to be leaving a job. I don't know how many people out there have ever had this experience of finding a job that you love, that feels right, that feel like home, that you do well in...well I found that kind of job one I loved, one that I knew that I needed to be there, one that I felt like I was at home...which really did become a second home to me...and not even that it was an extended family for me actually. Now if you have read all my blogs you know that at this job I met two very special people...but really they all became very special to me. I know some of you all that are reading this is like what the heck...because yes in high school I was not this mushy kid that got close to anyone...I was basically a punk to put it nicely...I am sure many of you all could come up with some other words to describe me but either way I don't care. Anyways...during my year and a half at this job I have changed immensly....which scares me a lot...but I know its for the better. I've become a better person. Its amazing to me how a job can change me. I have to say when I first started there I wasn't that sure about it. It was weird at first, but I love it. I felt weird going to a place that people had been working together for 12 years plus...in a place that originally wasnt going to hire me...to a place were I was second choice actually. So it was a little hard and I knew going in I would have to prove myself to them. I never knew a year and a half later I would be so sad to leave.

During my time there I got some great experience, great pay, great support, and best of all some great friends. During this time I met some wonderful people and this is why today I am so sad to be leaving. Let me just try to run through the people in the office I have met. As I have said before my boss was and is amazing. She's changed my life...she is wonderful. She is a always there for me and is always wanting what is best for me. Its just insane to me how great she really is. Words cant even describe...but I know I have lots to learn from her. Then her assistant at the time was someone that really could make me laugh....we spent a lot of time telling jokes and just having fun. I enjoyed that time a lot. She definetly is someone that I also have a lot to learn from and that really is there for me and very supportive...but with her its not as bad to be leaving because actually she left before I did and we still talk so I know that we will still talk now that I am leaving. She's really a person that knows just want to say and do to make me laugh when I am down. Then there is lady that I really wasn't too sure about...she has this negative attitude a lot...but deep down inside you can tell she is a good person. I got to know this person in a different way then I think most of the student workers do. I am kind of amazed by her actually. She's definetly not the typical person I know which made it great knowing her. I got to see a different side of myself. Then this lady that hasn't really been there that long I'd say 8 or 9 months at most has a totally different attitude towards life...one that most people don't have...every time I have ever seen her she has been in a great mood. She is funny in her own way...she's probably someone that I also don't think I would normally like...not that I have a type I like...but she has a great outlook on life and is very considerate. As well as she has a great story behind how she got where she was...and that story just gives me so much encouargement...and makes me feel good. Then there is the boss on the other side she is very nice...a little different and a little more mature then the rest of us and very professional...and well lets just say she isn't the favorite around the place...but I like her. She is very nice...yes she is very professional but I don't blame her to be...but to me she has shown another side of herself to me...its funny...we have had some nice conversations and she has joked with me a few times and turned out to be a pretty nice person...now I know this probably sounds rude but the one thing I learned from her is that I don't need to take my job too seriously, because I feel she does and thats why some people in the office don't like her...but at the same time I understand why she does. Then there is this lady that I wasn't sure about at first...I liked her but was very skeptical about her...just because I knew she talked about people a lot...which is something I don't like unless its a good thing your going to say about the people...but even though I didn't care for that that much she was a great person...she always listened to you and always had advice for you. She also has a story that I feel I can really learn from. Then there is this lady that is just a child at heart really. Shes a crazy old lady really...that does whatever she really wants and doesn't care what others thinks about her...which is something I need to learn from her. Then there is that is just hilarious...I love talking to her...she is so concerned about my life...and every conversation I have with her I end up laughing. She's this innocent...well looks innocent person that just cracks me up. She was really there for me when things got rough. Then there is this lady that drives me insane like crazy insane like you want to like slam your head into a wall crazy...and its not that its really her...its the sound of her voice that drives me insane...but I am not going to go any farther with this person because I was told if you have nothing nice to say don't say anything at all. Then there is this lady that I wasn't very sure about...she was someone I heard that it was hard to get along with but some how we seemed to get along...and it was just one of those fun friendships nothing really serious I don't think she even really knows why I am leaving or anything...because we just joked a lot with each other...but I loved it...she just was funny. Then my big boss...at first I really didn't like her to tell you the truth...she scared me actually and she never could get by freakin name right and it drove me insane...but now I like her and I think its because she makes me feel good about myself....then there is this lady that just joined us recently...but she gets me...its weird but she seems to really get me...she curses a little too much for me but she is funny. There is only a few more to talk about...there isthe big big big boss that when she first started I head that I needed to watch out and to act alive...which scared me and made me not like her...but the day I wuit she was joking with me and talkign to me and laughing with me and everything it was so weird but great...great to know that I could get along with her...and today my last day she wished me the best and told me to come back and that if I was looking for a job to give her a call...that means a lot to me...and I am sure to anyone. Then there is a little weird but very nice...she scares me a little because I don't really like to be hugged and she hugged be 5 times in like a course of two days...a little weird for me. But she is very nice and I am sure I could learn from her. Then there is someone that is SO amazing to me. During the last two months that I was there I really started to get to know her and well she amazes me...She is a true Christian and someone that I will learn so much from and have learned so much from. I believe that God put her in my life for a reason. He put her in my life to strengthen my faith...because its not where it needs to be at all. She amazes me how positive of a outlook she has on life and every one...Every time I talk to her I feel so much better about things...I mean she is so considerate and such a great encourager. She for my going away gift gave me a wonderful card...with a box, a encouragement box...It has little sayings she stamped and wrote and whatever else on colored papers and cut them out all fancy...with a few other nice little perks in the box...but really who would really go through all that trouble for someone...thats the type of person she is. I wish that I would of had more time spent with her but I know that every single day she is making a impact on my life with this box. So...there is basically everyone that I worked with minus student workers and one person that I can't even really start to talk about...this person changed my freakin life...I am completely a different person...she is someone that I really can't believe we are the friend we are today...and I hope we continue to be friends..I hope that our friendship continues to grow. She had a immense impact on my life. You know how you have that one person that changes your life and your never the same...that you have that one person that no matter what you do or how made you make them they are still there right beside you...that no matter what you do they are there for you...well she is that person to me...I can't even explain everything that I want to say.. I can't express how I feel about anything to do with her...she is amazing and I know that God put her in my life for a reason and I have SO much to learn from her. So because of these people is why I am so sad to be leaving...and its so weird for me. I just don't know why I am so sad and why I don't want to leave. I guess I am on here right now writing to just let my feelings out. Well I am going to go read this little cards that were given to be today from each of the people I wrote about.
