House settles today. Keys being dropped off tonight. Got another open house at the old place tomorrow. Thankfully my folks are in town so we are taking them off to see the new place and don’t have to sit there twiddling our thumbs waiting for people to finish trooping through the house. We had over a hundred through last week. So that bodes well for a good price. At least so I hope.
Mefcon is leaving my evil former employer today too. Then he’s jetting off to Ireland for three months leaving me bereft of my only regular drinking partner. Lonely nights at the pub ahead. *sigh* But damn nasty night at the pub tonight for his going away I suspect – a lot of bitter current and ex-employees getting hammered and ranting about our evil current/former employer. By now they must have laid off nearly 25% of my former colleagues. Fucking dumb-arse bastards.
Thankully I got out before the axe was laid on my neck. I was an angry, bitter, out-spoken and burnt out wreck by the time I left. I’d have been quick on the chopping block. Wouldn’t have gone down without a nasty fight though. Knew where more than a few bodies were buried. Could have done some serious damage. But a cooler head prevailed and I bowed out before the bloodshed to much greener pastures. Am a happier man as a result too.
