I feel like this MIGHT apply here 14 months ago

I’m quitting my job for several reasons, but many of them have to do with my boss and the way she runs the pubs department. I decided that before I leave today (my last day), I’m sending an email that I drafted to my boss’s boss and HER boss that details my frustrations. If they want to keep anyone in this position for very long, I really do think they need to shape up. Every single one of my coworkers agrees.

I think this will feel liberating.

Not much time to be restless lately, 14 months ago

and if I’m accepted to the master’s program I’m applying for, I’ll have even less time ;)
