Just handed over the letter I've been sat on for a week. I thought for an awkward moment he wasn't going to accept it.
Now I've got the shakes and feel a bit sick. 
Not looking forward to walking past my boss' desk on my way out tonight, I feel terrible for leaving..
No going back now. Goodbye down south, MSc and Leeds, here I come!
Excited, yet at once bricking it.
dont worry.
no one's that important.
well played - i did the same a couple of weeks back, more studying for me as well!
Nice one. Bricking it and excitement is one of the best combinations leading to a lovely endorphin/adrenaline rush...get a beer down you and you'll be on top of the world
There's a lovely bottle of organic cider waiting for me in the fridge when I get home...
unfortunately only the one. I don't think that will suffice on this occasion.
Christ I'm buzzing. Never done anything quite so reckless - I'm the sensible one.
no longer stuckinarut!
no longer stuckinarut!

I'll need a new name.
Roll on September!
Roll on September!
That's three names, but I like it. Get it changed.
Oh, and good on you for doing it - at a time when people are stressing about keeping their jobs, it takes a brave person to sack theirs off. Chapeau!

There's a lovely bottle of someone else's White Lightning waiting for me in the fridge when I get home...
White Lightning...are you posh? It's aaaaaaall about Frosty Jacks!
oh no uplink, it's been 12 years since my first studentdom. I've become used to a certain standard - not ready to fall *that* far Gone are the days of seeing how much farm stores bitter it took to get pissed.
chvck wtf is frosty jacks? whatever it is, it can't be good!
I think being a 'mature' student is going to be fun
New trails, new riding buddies. Can't wait.
when people are stressing about keeping their jobs, it takes a brave person to sack theirs off. Chapeau!
Brave or daft? But tis only a job, and I've ditched an albeit well-paid and secure software job, for a new direction in something I actually believe in (Conservation). Won't make me rich, but then I've never been financially motivated.
This cider is going down very nicely. and the indian's just arrived. Yay! Today is a good day.

Well white lightning is cheapo, nasty cider...frosty jacks is cheapo, nasty white lightning!
This cider is going down very nicely. and the indian's just arrived.
So they've got a replacement in already!
Jacking a job in is one of the best feelings out there - especially when they dont see it coming.
well done, i have done it too, strange feeling having no job lined up yet, luckily i am in an economy where there is temp jobs - nursing
but it feels like a massive load has been lifted off my shoulders!
Well done to you too bw!
I know what you mean about the load off your shoulders! It's a good feeling. bit scary. but good.
Must ride more with the Trolls before I go up north! It's on my list of things to ride before I leave the south. (and I need to get my new jersey off mrs poddy!)
Smee, I'm not that mean . I warned them months ago that I was considering it. I think they thought it was a ploy to get more money, so they threw a bonus and share options at me (not that I'm complaining). I think that's why he was shocked when I actually did it yesterday - all they think about is the business and profit and work work work, I don't think they can actually grasp why anyone would give that up... sad really.
good man I did the same 3.5 years ago and am just about to start my last semester of BPlanning, I've had a blast, its flown by and once the builiding trade picks up i'll be getting twice a week what i used to earn. enjoy it, 4 years goes very quickly.
