Ugh, I can not express how happy I am that it's Friday tomorrow! This week has been sooo long.
Tomorrow for me is bitter sweet. It will be my last day at my job I have loved for over 2 years to start my new job closer to home on Monday.

Good for you Amanda!
 
I just hope I can learn the new job and do it well and hopefully make a new friend or two that are as awesome as the ones I made at the old job.
I have no doubt that you will!
Are you able to hang out with them outside of work and keep in touch?

We are friends on Facebook and once I get trained if I decide to do work four 10 hour days then I could go have lunch with them.

I am sure you will be just fine, you are such a smart and caring person! You will do great at your new job, and I am sure you will make friends so easily. Who wouldn't want to get friends with you?! Anyways, good night Amanda!
 
Good night peeps, not sure how many heads under this frogspawn but might be doing some fragging soon. It is devastating the orange coral above it.
