Day of Unemployment
April 19, 2007I’m unemployed. It feels weird. No worries, I start a new job on Monday, but since I left my old job today, that makes me technically unemployed at the present time, right?
I have lofty plans for my day of unemployment:
- sleep in
- eat breakfast out
- go to the gym in the middle of the day (I’m always jealous of people who get to do that)
- sit outside on the deck and do nothing but listen to the birds and enjoy the SUNSHINE
- watch Gone with the Wind (that one was prompted by the urging of some colleagues who were shocked and somewhat appalled that I’d never seen it)
- Avoid showering or wearing anything but sweats until after 3pm (or later)
What would you do if you had one day completely and utterly to yourself? Reading this back, it doesn’t sound like I treat myself very well. Perhaps I should revise this plan as well.
Have you seen the movie Office Space? There’s a great scene:
“Dude, what did you do all day?”
“Nothing….. and it was everything I thought it could be.”
Enjoy your day off!
The light is out in your (old) office.
How’s the new job going?
