I am officially unemployed. My last day of work at Platinum was yesterday. I don't think the reality of it all has really set in yet. The last nearly 5 years of my life I have spent working at security companies. Day in and day out it has been contracts, reps, techs, and all their problems that I was trying to solve. So it will be a little weird for me next week when I am not dealing with any of those things.
Yesterday we went to lunch for my last day. I chose Sizzler because I was seriously craving their shrimp. While we were standing in line I was talking to Kevin (the controller). He started talking to me about the flights and asking if they were hard for me with the motion sickness. I was so lost in the conversation and I had no clue what he was talking about. So then he goes on to say well when my wife was pregnant she got pretty sick on the flights.... I quickly interrupted Kevin and said I am not pregnant. It was pretty funny. He felt horrible! He said he thought he heard from someone else that I was and that was why I was quitting. Then he went on to say how I didn't look pregnant so he thought that was weird. But in the end we had a good laugh about. As well as the rest of my co-workers who were at lunch.
At lunch Jared (my boss) stood up and announced they had a gift for me. I was surprised, I was not expecting anything. Well with a lot of help from T-Ray (a co-worker) they gave me a basketball signed by all the Utah Jazz players, and a Deron Williams jersey that was signed by D-Will!! It was such a perfect gift!! Anyone who knows me knows that I love D-Will and the Jazz! I was thrilled. I knew Cody would be excited as well. So I kept it a secret from him until he picked me up from the airport last night. Then I showed him what they had given me. I am pretty sure I am going to frame the jersey and put it in my living room, it would be a good addition to the decor.
I had such wonderful people that I worked with at Platinum. I will miss seeing a lot of them on a daily basis. But I am excited to officially be in Oklahoma and here with Cody. I think he was starting to get lonely here without me when I was gone. He sure likes being taken care of when I am here. And he likes my cleaning. I am not sure he has lifted one finger to clean anything while I have been gone!
