Last Day, woo hoo!
Jun. 3rd, 2005 10:53 pmI escaped! I just finished working my last day at Bon-Ton. Ever. I can't even describe how happy I am. "Ecstatic" doesn't seem like a strong enough word. When I first went in today I was smiling and laughing. At work. I was so happy it was finally my last day. As the day wore on I did start to get a little irritated though. At the store, the customers, the managers, everything basically. By about 7:30 (I actually had to close on my last day. I couldn't believe it...) I just wanted to yell at people, "Look, I KNOW it's rainy and yucky outside, but don't you have anything better to do than shop here? Go away!" On my way out, I almost forgot to clock out. I was about to walk right out the door. I'm glad John Owens stopped me...
There was only one thing that made the day bitter sweet, and that was having to say goodbye to so many people. I really do like a lot of the people there, and that's what I'll miss. I had about a dozen people come up to me today and say something along the lines of: goodbye, good luck, I'll miss you, come visit, etc. And that's not counting everyone I said goodbye to yesterday. And I am going to go visit. Not often, but a few times. The two people I'll miss the most are April and Chris Tanczos. He let me hide (or if a manager asked I was helping him) in collections all this past week. I mean, he knew I didn't want to be there any more. Chris did come say goodbye, in the form of coming up behind me in the break room and yelling. Scared the heck out of me!! The other thing that surprised me is that I started crying a bit in the evening. Right after Michelle and Tara hugged me goodbye. I mean, I'm not even all that close to either of them. But that was what did it; saying goodbye to people I worked with everyday. I was hoping I wouldn't, but... well, I happen to be very sentimental. At least it only lasted for about 30 seconds.
