Finished.

Just got home from my last day of work. There isn't a lot of celebration by management when you quit; no party, letters of appreciation, or departing bonus. However my fellow workers were happy for me and one was a bit envious of my being able to just leave. Several mentioned looking for different jobs but how they had spent so much money coming over here and getting setup that they just HAD to stay. The new guys plundered my desk before I even got my coat on for the things I had been able to “acquire” over the nine months I was there to make my job easier. In place of a party, my watch officer let me leave two hours early so that was sort of a bonus. :-)
Now it is on to three weeks of being a tour guide for some very close friends from the states and then..... HOME!!
