Hey, thanks ccbailey! There's nothing like gallows humor to take the edge off...I'm not as afraid of getting fired so much. I know from reading these boards I'm very fortunate in that I don't need this money to help support a family. It's just the waiting that gets me as I'm a little bit high-strung.
It has been great for me too. Before I started this job I'd just finished a gov't internship with a really demanding boss, so it has been especially wonderful for me to remind myself that my boss, whoever she is, is in California. I'm not saying she's not a great person (Though I wouldn't know! [img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img] Ah ha ha!) but it's still really nice to have a boss in a completely different state for awhile.
I haven't been axed down yet, but when the fateful day does arrive, I kind of want to cope by making a blog or something with all the things I've learned/found during the course of this job. I swear to god I've bookmarked half the internet.
