14 years of silence, 14 years of pain

Six years ago today I started work at my current place of employment. This picture was taken shortly after training class began, back in June of 2002.

This picture was taken a few minutes ago.


I like my new glasses way better. Also it turns out my mouth is crooked. Looks like I used to have a little bit more hair too.

Here's some historic trivia for you: Gatsby and I met in that training class. Who would have thought that years later we would come to completely dominate the Blogiverse.

I was going to wax nostalgic about the last six years of work, but now I'm just bummed out. I'm going to go get my coffee and quietly contemplate mortality.

  2. Happy anniversary playa!!! It's not so bad. You could have had your EIGHT year anniversary last month...during your futile attempts to leave your employer for greener pastures...that would really suck. (Sigh...)

  3. when i quit my job, i chose my 3rd anniversary to let my boss know. she called me and said "happy 3rd anniversary!" i said "thanks! i'm moving to california in two weeks!"

    jokes on me, though, because i came right back 1.5 years later.

  6. B,

    I think you need to resign...
    from the blog and devote your time and talent to a career that will bring you bliss. Or at least more $. Or better yet, Euros.
