Well I'm in the last ½ hour of m shift for this week so that means I actually made it. It was a very emotional week for me and I'm looking forward to a few days of R&R. I have 1 more week of work and then we are shut down for the week of the holiday so I'll have a little more then.
I likened the end of this week to my friend Cynthia to the movie "It's a wonderful life".
In the movie there is a part where Jimmy Stewarts character is trying to calm a run on the building and loan. He takes to using his own money to keep the place open and with about a minute to spare he is left holding $2 in his hand. I remember him saying something to the effect of if they make it to closing that they stay in business.
Today was my building and loan run. I felt as though if I could make it to the end of my shift today that the worst part of my tenure here was over. Ok not so much worst as much nerve-wracking but you get the picture. All in all I think it has been a successful week. It's good to know I'm getting support. I got this email from one of the engineers this am that was really cool.
Hi Karyn:
I got your message on Monday and meant to swing by this week to offer you support and encouragement
Didn't happen so I'm writing you briefly now.
I wish you the best of success in your complicated transition over the next couple of years. Hope to catch up with you soon to see how you are doing.
Can't get any better than that. That seems to be the consensus of the people that know me and I've yet to hear about anyone else who is negative… Good times!
Weekend is here!
Karyn
