Yesterday was kind of fun in a lot of ways.
I filled out my employee satisfaction survey, but it was pretty unsatisfying.
First, there were questions like "Do you feel that management values your opinions?" and "Do you get clear direction from your supervisors?"
There were no questions like "Do you feel that your manager is an asshat?" and "When you snap, how many co-workers do you plan on taking with you? 1-10? 11-20? 21-50? Tri-state killing spree?"
Anyway, the form was back-ended on a database on our network. Needless to say, when the results are tallied at the end of the week, somehow 321% of employees would rate their overall experience as "Extremely Poor".
Also, there is a LOT of cursing in the comments section.
Either way it's over for me.
Ten minutes before I was supposed to leave I got my "even-though-you-had-the-vacation-time-we-are-firing-you-for-attending-your-wife's-uncle's-funeral" paperwork and was escorted from the building.
I don't think I've ever been escorted from the building.
When my contract ended at Reliant (along with all the other contracts of people not living in India) I locked the doors behind myself and turned off the lights.
So this morning I slept in.
Plans for today include a mid-day screening of Charlotte's Web and some tennis. Maybe a trip to the pool.
I should also scrape the job boards to see what flakes off.

OMG, Holy Freakin Crap, you play tennis? O and just cause I was wondering, who watches Justin now? and exactly what is the logic in firing you if they were short handed? Doesn't that just mean they're even short handed?
Dude, I had no idea you played tennis! Tennis always seemed so gay.
F those guys for firing you. It'll be better off this way. They sounded like mega-asshats. Maybe now you find something in Southern California. :)
You may find something on craigslist.
Are you any good at tennis? You could always put bead-laden weaves in your hair and go pro.
I agree with Darrell. It seems hiring/firing choices are often based on the criteria of "how can we really screw things up royally around here?"
Southern California is on the list of possible destinations.
I'm also looking at this as a chance for my former employer to verify how closely they track changes to group policy and scheduled tasks.
