Not &ldquo;someday&rdquo; &ndash; that would have been too easy to let slide. The specific date. The day I turn 50. I turned it into a condition: not in this job on my 50th birthday. Stated that way, the condition is met. I sent the resignation notice 39 days ago. I have not been in the job since September 19.</p>
