Today was my last full time day at my current company. I am very happy.
I admit that my current boss made an offer that I couldn't turn down. He's asked me to stay on as a per diem, completely remote, "consultant" to help him type letters to the international suppliers and big name customers because apparently I "understand the Japanese and use Corporation talk really well". This will be a very sporadic thing and I will be paid a HUGE amount per hour.
Frankly I don't know what he'll have a new assistant do, as this is already the majority of my actual work (when I'm not pushing the button on the keurig machine when he wants coffee).
I foresee it being around an hour or so a week if that, but hey, I get to start my new job and if this side gig is too much of a hassle, I'm no worse off than I am now, with maybe a bit of extra pin money in the pocket to pay down some bills.
on a side note the girls in the office all gave me a bottle of wine and a Tim Horton's gift card
