Holy shit what a day…

So from what all three of my readers knows, i’ve had a bit of a workplace issue.

I walked in this morning and quit my job.

It wasn’t really planned, and I was fairly certain it wasn’t a smart thing to do per-se, the whole “Hey idiot, you don’t have another job lined up yet” bit of the argument didn’t show up until later.

But I did it.  I walked into the boss’ office and told him that I’ll tell <contracting company> to start sending him resumes for my replacement immediately.

So we talked for a bit, and it didn’t take long for me to start venting.  he asked me if I really wanted to leave, I told him no, but I didn’t see any other choice seeing as <newteamlead> wouldn’t let me do my fucking job, instead relegating me to crap work that my intern could do on a day-to-day basis.

He asked me to hold off making any phone calls, and that he would fix it.

And then I stepped through the looking glass into wonderland…  Suddenly the idiot who has spent the last 6 months being the bane of my existence, suddenly is my best friend, and I’m being asked my opinion on technical matters, 7 figure purchase orders, and the like.  (the stuff I’m actually paid to do)

So who knows – maybe this problem is fixed…for now.

I’m not holding my breath though.
