I am retired from preschool teaching!!!!! I officially work the gig economy now, and the I’m my own boss jokes haven’t even gotten old yet.
My people sent me off well, with a cool ass tote bag, a cute little plant, pizza, green beans, and a giant tray of mediterranean meat and rice that Bree ordered the other day. We froze it, and it will serve us well in these sparse days of hustling.
And 2 of my kids got me cookies and candy, and a large gift card we will be using to get steak at L Woods one day when the ramen will have become overwhelming.*
Seems to be that when you leave you feel the most appreciated.
Now I’ve got 2 years to Make It before I would have to do the Walk of Shame back to the JCC. Wish me luck. And if you want to send leftovers, we are really going to miss those.
Sincerely,
A New Amy**
*Kidding. I’ve been trying to get Adam to cook ramen with me for years.
**A BOSS Amy! Monday I have orientation and sexual harassment training with myself.
Know what I don’t have anymore? A meeting on what to do if a guy with a gun comes in and starts shooting babies.
