Quittin’ Time in Open Diary 2001-2018 (Pre-Prosebox)

Today’s the day that I march right into Big Boss’s office and tell her to shove this job right up her ass. The only reason I’m not doing it to Mr. Peepers is that he’s out of the country for another week. Honestly, I wish I could resign to Mr. Peepers because I’ve grown to semi-like his arrogant ways. And it gave me so much pleasure to watch him fall from grace with Big Boss. It just would have been the delicious icing on the cake.

But I will resign to Big Boss. And I’m so incredibly nervous about it. And everyone I’ve told simply cannot believe how worried I am about what her reaction will be. I know, I shouldn’t be.

What is my problem? We’re talking about Big Boss here!! The one who has made me cower with fear! The one who’s tied my stomach in knots for months!! The one who has viciously minced me behind my back. The one who smiles smugly to my face. The one who can’t stand to see me, or anyone else for that matter, happy. The one who has embarrassed me time and time again in front of co-workers and big wigs alike during presentations and other meetings by insinuating all kinds of things….including accusing me of being some kind of flirtatious little minx (which may be true, but did she really have to point that out in business meetings??!)

I should be thrilled to hand that letter of resignation to Big Boss. And I should do it with that same “fuck-you” bitchy smile that she’s always given me after she’s torn me to shreds and simply waltzed out of the room, leaving my bloody innards exposed to the elements.

Fucking bitch.

But she probably won’t even care. And this will probably make her very, very satisfied. And she’ll probably smile that same “fuck-you” smartass smile because she’ll feel like she’s won. Like she beat me down so hard that I’m just up and leaving the company.

WHY DO I GIVE A SHIT??!

And why am I so goddamn worried about finishing up projects and making things look all pretty and going above and beyond at this point??! Why? What the hell is wrong with me?

Will somebody please slap me?

Okay. Better go get ready. What does one wear to a resignation?
