Well, it's done. I signed my job away at 4:32 this afternoon. It feels really weird.
Of course, it was so like Jobsworth to try and go back on our agreement, until I pointed out the paragraph that read that I would no longer be obliged to come into work from the moment I put my signature to the document, so as to facilitate me in the search for employment elsewhere. Then he tried to appeal to my better nature by reminding me of how short-staffed we were...but how is this any of my business now? Twat.

Good luck with the search!
YAY YOU!!!!!!! It can only get better now. Closure can be so rewarding in itself. Don't be scared, you'll be fine.

Upwards and Onwards, I say.

I still can't quite believe it. Life is going to be so much more enjoyable without his constant asshattery around me.
I have to wonder why Jobsworth agreed to your severance if you are so valuable that he needs you to stay on. Or maybe he was just too stupid to realise it until he saw you walking out the door. His asshatery knows no bounds.
(and yeah, asshattery is a word, I just made it up)
Now's your chance to get a job without a 2hr commute too! :)
It's hard to credit, isn't it? But that's </b>exactly</b> what was going on in his head. And of course 'asshattery' is a word. I've just used it, haven't I? ;-)

I hope so! So far, I've only been offered interviews (2) at companies that operate in the Amsterdam area again...but it's early days yet. I'll keep on looking for something closer to home for now.
