Pumpkin thinks I should celebrate by petting her all the time. Alrighty then!
Well some friends of Buffy played a funny joke and they took her stuff and now she wants us to help get it back from her friends who sleep all day and have no tans.

I'm trying to button up everything that needs buttoning on my old job so I can start cramming for my new job that I officially start in two weeks.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My new boss and my old manager had a meeting about my transition last week. I don't know if that was supposed to indicate it's been done badly or what. But old manager has been worse than terse. She's had a lot on her plate since coming back from PTO, but I do feel like I've been disappeared from there--other people talk to me still, but there's a void there--I can't even draw her out on conference calls.

That sucks, ita. My transition is off a product that's closing, at least, so everyone on my old team is supportive and also moving to a new role.

It's a rough time for IT in general right now, but that could contribute to an we're-all-in-this-together feeling, rather than a palpable chill. I do know some people think this was an effective promotion, and maybe some people think I think so.
Hell, my first reflex was that I'd been ditched.
I'm glad yours is going well.

So far! We'll see what happens when I start doing the new thing full time. Insert "I have no idea what I'm doing" meme here.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Yay, sara! Glad it went well.
I'm sorry everyone else is having a pissy Monday. I myself was ready to start drinking at 9:20 this morning.
