 Cat is finally out of the bag about Big Deal person and the person filling in spilled beans early. YAY METAPHORS, but boo for bean-spilling. It was a Thing and big deal is unhappy about it and just was hoping to ghost out.

the thing is, when you're a professional, you CANNOT just ghost. We just bitched about this exact thing when the head honcho did it in july.  Do we need classes about how to quit gracefully and do transition planning?  Because nobody ever does it here in this org.

In theory, there should be training, and conversations about who's going to do what, and stuff like that. YOU KNOW THIS, readers.  But i think maybe these folks are insulated from jobs where they learn these skills.

Today I have forgotten my medicines! BOOOOOO but it's not being a problem at this time. As far as I can tell. :/

But I DID have a cool idea for a book or short story, and I did have a cool idea for a career move that uses my experience.  a bit. IDK.  I wrote maybe 300 words this morning for the book idea.  And the career move is to consider School Guidance.  I would have to do schooling and licensing.  The reason I'm thinking about that:  was dealing with a family exp homelessness this morning and thinking about how guideance people deal with that, and Feelings, and Career, and Life, all the time.  I used to do the employer-side of the career-piece. I do fun stuff with leaddership. I have insight into mental health and additction and depression.  I could be the person that I needed, maybe. 

But it is nice to have a not my monkeys job right now with 'paperwork.'

I probably also wrote about the potential community foundation thing.  my brother does NOT love that for me.  He's like 'what's in it for you' and I was like 'why is that a question' but i guess it's a real question.   More about that when I write about word of the year.

Everyone is trying to leave at 1 today, but i ended up with a 1 pm call, a 1:30 onboarding, and a 2:30 zoom. After the onboarding I'll take the zoom at home. 

I'll be here on Monday, ....
.....and lo - it is monday and i've returned to this entry. (taking the zoom at home didn't happen but i still left a LITTLE early).   Today the heat isn't really working. And I owe myself a couple hours. So I'm going to finish getting organized here and then take off. Groceries, RXes are in my immediate future, and maybe a car-wash if they're open.

i knew i was going to work a short day and nobody would be here so I didn't change my pants and I feel gross. Just wanted to throw that out there.
