So, today I quit my job. I’ve never been the type to bitch and moan on my blog because truly, it’s unprofessional…and you never know who out in the virtual world will read your rants and take swift and punitive action. I wasn’t about to be stupid and do anything to jeopardize my job.

But, my close friends and family knew the deal. And quite honestly, I hated the person I had become over the past two years. That’s no way to live, and it’s no way for Capt. UberHusband to live.

Having said that…YAY! I QUIT MY JOB!

There is something rather unnerving about quitting your job when you work at home. Believe it or not, it’s actually easier to do it in person. You know when your boss is in his/her office and when you can deliver your resignation. My boss wasn’t at his desk the first time I called him, which totally took the wind out of my sails.

On the upside…I don’t have co-workers coming into my cube and asking me all those questions that really make you feel like taking the rest of the day off. On the downside, thanks to the wonder of technology my entire team knew I was leaving in about ninety seconds.

Anyhoo, that is over and done.

On that note, here are the FAQs:

Do you have another fantabulous job waiting in the wings? Nope.

What are going to do? I don’t know. Finish school. Maybe get back to writing because at one point, I think was pretty damn good at it. Stop and smell the roses.

What about money? We’re fine.

Didn’t you just re-do the home office? Yes, we did. But, we also designed it around my still being in school…and how wonderful and functional it would still be even if we both worked outside the home.

What did your boss say? He said he wasn’t surprised, and that he figured it was coming.

When’s your last day? October 31st.

Come on, be honest. Why are you leaving? Because I want to pursue other opportunities. And that’s the line I’m sticking with.

For the first time in my life, I have absolutely no plan. Of course I have school but other than that, I’m winging it. Looking forward to the journey.
