    Nice. Onwards and upwards. Hope things work out for you.

    It is a weird feeling. Tuesday is my last day at my job for a company I was about to start my 19th year with. I go away for a week and then start my new job on Wednesday the 28th. It is definitely strange, so I kinda know what you are going through.

    My current company was sold. I was offered a job with the new company and could have kept all my seniority and entitlements, like vacation time and stuff, but it is a 65 mile commute each way up the NJ Garden State Parkway. Fuck that. I have been looking for a few months and found something better that is only 17 miles from my home. It is a big relief, but definately a bit of a sad feeling leaving all the people I have worked with for so long.

    In any case, good luck with the new job.

    Thanks.
    That's indeed a weird feeling. I've spent more tahn 3 years here and there are a few people I will miss.
    I even brought two colleagues to a Pearl Jam show ! They are now fan.
    But I'm pretty sure I will prefer my new job.
    I already spent 3 days there and everybody's very friendly. This is a small company (I am the 10th employee), managed like a family. This job is in the countryside, in a beautifl house with a garden. I will prefer that to the stress of Brussels...
    Good luck for your new job !

    Is the un-enlistment just around the corner?
