Do you know the feeling you get when you are about to break up with somebody you should have broken up with a year ago, but you stayed with them longer because you knew they needed you more than you needed them, and you knew that if you left you'd just destroy them, or at least make them very, very sad?
It's so hard to speak to the everyman, when you're just one.

Yeah, I'm putting in my 2 weeks on Friday, and then I'll be cut free. It's so odd. I'm training my replacement. It's like breaking up with somebody you've put just too much work into making right, and you finally realize that you're working hard on something crappy.
I feel like I've been a pretty much model employee. They seem to feel differently.
There ain't no good guy. There ain't no bad guy. There's only them and me, and I just need a new job and it's time to damn well find one.

Know that feeling! Next week I start my new job. . . in a completely different industry. No more publishing. Feels weird but liberating!
