Greetings, everyone!
Happy New Year to you, all!
As some of you may have known, and some of you may not have known, I was finally able to get PAROLLED!!! (After nearly 3 years in that slammer!)
First, we (actually, I), started the holidays on the evening of the 28th, but I had a small argument with the wife. Apparantly, because no one told me about the labor laws of Japan, they also didn't tell me about my rights to use up the last of my paid holidays, before they were erased when I left.
The wife insisted that when I go into work at the end of the holidays, to make a request for my holidays that will go until my last day (which left me with one paid holiday unused). I then took a gamble that the company would be open on the 29th, so I can get all the stuff I need to take home by car, that I can't do by train (It's embarrasing to take a big box labeled, "Oranges", with a bunch of office equipment on the train)
Upon my return at the end of the holidays on Jan. 6th, I put in my request, but had high resistance from the jerk of a boss, whom which the one lesson I learned was to stop pounding my fists on the tables, my hands begin to hurt too much for that, anymore!! (Instead, find something else to hit with!)
With the jerks last request to get something done, I worked through my lunch hour to get it all done, so I could leave that forsaken place as soon as possible. With my luck, there was a "Welcoming the New Year's" party for upper management (unfair for us grunts!) at 3pm, but the jerk had up and went to it with no comments whatsoever to me, so I finished what I needed to do for clearing my desk and computer (had to take all those "I hate the boss", and targets with the bosses face off the computer!), I said a simple "goodbye" to those within the hearing distance of a whisper, and left!
The next day, I get this rude unknown E-mail to my mobil phone, and the person's phone number happened to be attached.
Since I couldn't get my proper farewell to the former company, which was of the same company group, I went to say goodbye. While I was there, I asked my previous boss (the good one!) if he happend to have the "jerk of a boss's" mobil phone number...as a matter of fact he did, and it was EXACTLY the number attached to the rude e-mail sent to my mobil phone.
At least I knew that my guess was right as to who sent it. (I changed my phone number on the 13th, the last official day at that company!) And, I think I was able to give enough info for that jerk to look even worse! A 50 year old sending such a rude message won't look so good for his next promotion, if he ever gets one! I made sure that my reasons for resignation was pointing fingers at the jerk for being over 50% of the reason for my quitting. Many people were surprised, some dissapointed, but overall, I think I finally got the best of them!
So, now today is my last day of my holidays, before I almost literally start a new life!! I go to my new company tomorrow, the 16th, and will soon learn the requirements of what I need to do there.
Only problem is, since I was viewing the forum during the work hours of my old company (something highly recommended if you want to get fired for), I was able to post frequent. Now, with my new job, and all it's challenges that were not present at the last job (the reason for my slacking, and insubordination), I may not be able to view the forum as often, but still intend to check up when I can.
Since the company will work on "Flex Time", that once i understand how it works, I'll probably be able to increase my visits here. The time I've been here already, I've found a way to learn how to express myself through writing, and feel I have been able to build up a lot of friendship relationships, and presently feel I have no enemies (a relaxing thought at the moment!)
Though I know this was long, it certainly was able to catch everyone up to the present. (and explain my absents, as so no one worries about me--though I really do appreciate the concerns, everyone!)
I know, the next step to this is everyone's concern as to how my new job is doing, and I'll keep everyone posted.
