Velociraptor Jul 2018 4:50pm, 21 Jul 2018 38666 posts	0 Velociraptor I intend to create contact with people who don't want reams of meaningless metrics/last minute rota changes/extra oxycodone oh and just my diazzies from me.
Valyrian Plastic Nov 2019 2:29pm, 17 Nov 2019 8073 posts	0 Valyrian Plastic Despite everything that happened to bring me here, there are a lot of things I will miss. Feeling free to explore a place I love to my heart's content, getting to experience unique and eye-opening events every other week, having an increased sense of independence. It's also worth remembering that I wouldn't have made it this far if I hadn't at least been passionate about the work I did from the beginning. There were (and still are) people I worked with who I appreciated being in the company of, even if that couldn't always be the case.

SteveC amid the winters snow Dec 2020 4:19pm, 13 Dec 2020 276 posts	0 SteveC amid the winters snow I struggle to come up with anything, but here's one: I miss the opportunity to wear out clothes I otherwise wouldn't have bought and have no desire to wear now. I know it's a weak one, but that's a reflection of my strength of missing anything.

🎄FestiveMedals🎄 Dec 2020 4:54pm, 13 Dec 2020 18944 posts	0 🎄FestiveMedals🎄 4 months after leaving, I'm missing nothing. The people I got on best with I am still in touch with and whilst the extra money was great, we are managing fine without it.
Bazoaxe 6 Feb 4:34pm, 6 Feb 2021 18872 posts	0 Bazoaxe Other than the income I don’t think I will miss anything when the time comes. Lots of people say they will miss the people and while I have worked with lots of nice people I also have worked with many who I just don’t trust or like. I also find that when work separates me from people I got on well with it’s usually me that makes the effort to keep in touch. AnywAy I reckon I still have three years to go at least and am moving into a new role in the next two weeks. Plans are to get my head down and enjoy that as it’s a job I can do well and enjoy and also the people are good.
