Tom, I'm so sorry! I hope that this leads to something awesome and better and just what you need, but I really wish it hadn't happened this way.
ita, I'm so sorry for your loss.
Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second — the second — that happens, you know I'll be there. I'll slip in, have myself a real good day.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Tom, that sucks. I'm sorry you couldn't leave on your own terms, with a new prospect waiting for you. I'm glad the severance is decent, though. Tiny silver lining.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Oh shit, Tom, I'm so sorry that your former office is full of fuckwits who don't know a good thing when it's been toiling away for them for 12 years. Here's hoping that several years from now, you'll find yourself saying, "That was the best thing that ever happened to me."

Ita, I am so sorry for your loss.
Tom, they don't deserve you. Wishing you much luck as you find a happier place to work. And if you can take photos in the meantime, that will be wonderful. You take fantastic photos.

Thrive to spite them
Boggs are cute I see those around a lot and I really want a pair, but I'll have to wait until next year to get some.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
i'm so sorry, Tom. I hope this is an opportunity for you to find a job where you can be happier, and that you can enjoy a little free time in the meanwhile.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
To me he looks okay as a ginger but super-NOM as Sherlock. This may have to do with the fact that both my brothers have red hair, so redheads just don't ping my meter. He has wondrous blue eyes, that's for sure.

Consuela, it really sounds that by staying there you are setting yourself for a miserable day to day situation
Well, maybe. I need to talk to the XO and find out what he thinks. And, if I can get myself hired, I'm in a better spot job-wise because I can get access to all the internal positions nationwide.
Frankly, the best option would be if they could make me national program manager, but I'm not seeing a lot of traction for that at the moment.
