[QUOTE="Been In Brown Too Long, post: 5131457, member: 32249"] Well, my last week started with me [I]telling [/I]the center manager, "Oh, by the way, I won't be here Friday." He looked at me and smirked. I said, "It isn't a request, nothing you can do." Petty, probably, but it felt good, so screw 'em. So Thursday became my last day. I handled no packages at all the last week since they wanted me to train my replacement on my way out. I went for four last rides, did a lot of pointing, go here, go there. Said bye to customers. Had the cake and speech thing on Thursday, thought maybe I'd avoid this by skipping out on Friday, no such luck. Last day I was floating on air, best day of work in 31 years. I had my wife drive me to work. Had other driver drop me off at a UPS Store around 1pm and my wife picked me up, and went home...never set foot back there since. My new life began at 49...life's good. [/QUOTE]
