7 years 3 months

I did it! I resigned! 7 years is not a short stay in this favorite agency of mine. I always thought I will be very excited and happy to see my cruel boss' dropped jaw upon receiving this letter because I hate what I'm doing now and I hate it even further every time she yell at me in an open office environment.

At first the feeling is Phew! BUT....

then the feeling became awful after she told me she has been working all day outside + only slept 1 hour last night and on top of all this is the fifth bad news she has received today. I wanted to give her the letter on a better day but it seems like everyday is a bad day so I thought WTF!!! Just do it anyway!

I hate to give her this really bad news at the wrong day and wrong time but I have to be answerable to my new company who is willing to wait for me patiently too. Sigh.... why is it so difficult to make some decisions without hurting anyone?

I saw tears at the side of her eyes while she's talking about handover and she really need me to serve 3 months notice. She always complain about my work and performance so I thought if I resign, she will be cool like a cucumber. It hurts me to see such reactions from her. She is one tough lady who doesn't show the weak side of her in front of anyone no matter how bad the situation is BUT today she shed tears because I am leaving her and this account in 3 months time.

7 years of partnership... Well at least I know I am worth some tears from this cold & tough lady.
