should i care?

thanks for all the compliments on my new look... i love it too, obviously... very minimalistic , simple yet bright...but being the Einstein that i am... i didn't copy my blogroll... before i changed over to the new look...so if you should be on my bloglist and you're not... please tell me... nothing personal ok? i know I'm missing a few and for the life of me i just can't remember who!!!

all of you have prolly heard enough about my new job / old job saga... well just one more small snippet i want to share with you... you ever get that "nafie" feeling at the precise second you resign from your job?... it's like changing gears... all of a sudden you're cruisin' for a bruisin'... "nafie" is that feeling that ummm how can i describe it to all you souties.. well basically you just don't give a flying fork anymore... yeah... that about sums it up... well I'm finishing up Friday... and the amount of work i have vs the amount of time i have left... off the scales... and here it is... check the worry in my eye! I've caught myself "filing" important documents accidentally into the wastebasket... i shit you not... my bin is looking fuller by the minute and although it's horrible that I'm doing this... again... check the worry in my eye... if my boss knew what i was up to she would fire my sweet ass on the spot... again... check the worry in my eye!... LOL... for all of you who had a hissy fit when i said I'm disposing of important docs in a random fashion... my boss just loves a paper trail... what i rate as not important she rates as a matter of life and death... so it's all relative after all... yes?...so... what else can i file today?

i like your style of filing. *straight into the dustbin, thank you very much for playing*.

insert 50c and try again. NOT.

you mistake me for somebody who gives a flying fuck.

oh, i'm sorry, does it look like i care?

HAHAHAHAHAHA. Go Sweets....

ps: you still haven't done your 'about a mommy meme'http://abadmommyblog.wordpress.com/2008/10/11/about-a-mommy/

go do it man!

Louisa said...

Sweets, I like the way you think! :-)

Best notice month I ever managed to manouvre was convincing my then boss that my time would be better spent writing a manual about what I do and training people to do it than actually doing any work myself. (The manual was already done but he didn't need to know that, right?). I swanned around supervising people and abusing the internet for the last month...it was brilliant! (Almost kind of makes up a little bit for the 7 years of hell I put up with before I got to that point).

Enjoy your filing! :-)

Dustbin filing is totally liberating. Yay sweeeeeeeeeets!

Ruby said...

he he....your boss might have been an auditor in her previous life....we love paper trails.....or maybe it's not so much loving paper trails....we need them!

Cam said...

What I would do is place the bin somewhere open and public, scrunch up the paper and take pot shots and see how often you can 'miss' the bin! :)

Sweets said...

AngelConradie said...

mwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahaaaaaaaaaa... thats hysterical. i reckon its not so much a "i don't care" as a "let her sukkel and see how much she took me for granted" attitude, eh!!?!
i was so tempted to do the same thing when i left my last job, but my work related ocd just wouldn't let me.
:-s

I think your "dustbin filing" is something that we've all done at some stage, sweets. Hell - some of us do it even though we haven't resigned.

Hang in there - you can make it to Friday!

Janine / Being Brazen said...

very funny...i think ive definitely had my share of dustbin filing dreams....

Briget said...

So friday is your last day??

Are you Excited about the new job? OR nervous as hell?

Cant wait to hear all about the new place and of course all about New Guy....

P.S. Does your new boss know about your FANTASTIC filing skills?

Anonymous said...

Hehe, there's only so much you can do in the last week :) Love your file 13 idea!

The Divine Miss M said...

Ah I do that sometimes too.

I figured nothing wrong with that ... but it is probably cause I haven't been caught yet!

At least you'r;e leaving the company, you can just stop taking their calls! :)

ENJOY YOUR LAST WEEK!!!! :P

Tamara said...

Freedom is awesome, hey? I'd set fire to the whole pile ;-)

Unknown said...

I say, why not? Go for it! You're actually just tying up loose ends (paper) in the best way with the time you have. Haha. I felt the same way when I left my last job. Didn't follow up on stuff I should have etc...left it all for the new person!

po said...

Check the worry in my eye! I love that, its from an ad for a car or something, hey?

I had the exact same attitude in my last week. When my boss asked me to do stuff I looked at him as if he was mad. He was mad, but that is another story.

Miss Caught Up said...

This reminds me of an old friend who no longer works with me. He sent an email card to Taps with the song, "You're not the boss of me now!" lol it was a riot!

Jennybean said...

We shred every peice of paper in my office... why? I have no clue!

but I think they would be on to me!

YAY for you though!

Romeo Morningwood said...

She's just covering her ass..
and from the sounds of it, that's going to take a lot of paper!

Slyde said...

i need to start filing more shit at work into the garbage... it would make the day go so much more smoothly...

pure evyl said...

That reminds me. I need to do some filing as well.
