Quitting Your Job

Day 72

What I Keep Going Back To

Three days after Doug's question, I'm noticing which things I return to when no one is making me. The job is not one of them.

Day 71

The Date Is Set. The Question Isn't.

Doug had one question. I said 'both.' Twenty-four hours later I'm still not sure if that was the real answer or the comfortable one.

Day 70

The One Question He Had

I told Doug I knew he had follow-up questions. He said he actually only had one. It was not the question I was expecting.

Day 69

I Used to Be Good at Turning It Off

The job has always had an off switch. I have always used it. This long weekend I'm not sure the same rule applies.

Day 68

I Have Been Filing Things Away

I started this blog as a commitment device. At some point it became the thing I'm writing toward when I'm not writing.

Day 67

The Month I Planned For

The backward map said first conversations needed to happen in July. July is here. The inbox has three things in it.

Day 66

The August Meeting I Accepted

I have a biweekly one-on-one with my manager. Today he said he'd resend the August 11 invite. I said sure. I accepted it.
