This is a very exciting time for me. I have 2 days left at my current company, and then I'm off to begin the new chapter in my career............as Public Relations Supervisor for Big Brown. I'm sure that doesn't seem all that impressive to some - so f' them - but at 26 years old, this is quite the accomplishment. For anyone who has ever worked in PR in the initial years of joining the work force, I'm sure their age was a factor at some point. I mean, why the fuck would a 50-some year old Vice President of Marketing and Communications for a major company consider any sort of counsel from a 26 year old punk valuable?
So that fact makes this transition that much more sweeter.
The funny part is, I never thought leaving this place would be as sad as it's been these past 2 weeks. I mean, I'm not exactly a victim of self-loathing, but I don't consider myself to be liked by so many people. I'm the first one to come out and say what an asshole I am - or can be, at least. But everyone has made this a pretty bittersweet experience, which has really helped put things into perspective.
But, I'm out in 2, and ready to move on.
