UPDATE IN OP: My anxiety for tomorrow is insane

[chessie]

GL tomorrow!

[Saudade]

Good luck!

The first time I was away from DS for a longer stretch was 9 hours and it was amazing. It was so nice to concentrate and throw my energy into something different that took my attention completely away from DS. I felt like a real human.

You'll do great and the day will pass so fast!

The time will fly back at work. Honestly. If your supervisor is professional she/he may be annoyed, but hopefully will act like an adult.

Good luck! It'll all be over soon.

they are not professional, haha. part of the reason I am leaving.

haha, that is the reason wanting to leave my current place. Though at my place you get walked to the door when you put in your notice, since they are afraid of security breaches.

Ugh! This gave me anxiety reading it....I'm really bad with work confrontation. Good luck, hopefully it will go better than you think!!

[pugz]

it will be okay! Have some wine and chocolate waiting at home!

Good luck!

Good luck! Even if it is the suck, it will only be one meeting and then at least the anticipation will be over and you'll know where you stand. Update when it's done and let us know how you're doing.

What's done is done.

I quit a job after a long leave ( as a student) and the boss (40 something man) told me (18 yr old kid) that I was burning a bridge. It was very unprofessional and instead of getting teary ( normal me) I got angry.

Do what's good for you. Your boss made his own bed.

Good luck today!

Good luck! Let us know how it goes

Good luck today, Starry! Let us know what happens.

Glad you survived. You sound like a valuable employee and I hope the next two weeks goes by quickly so you can get started in the better job.

Cool! I think I missed one of your updates...are you working from home part of the time at your new job? That's so great.

No - not yet. It is a possibility down the line though. But my new job is 8 minutes from home and 10 from daycare and my current job can take up to an hour with traffic (as little as 25 minutes at slow times).

Oh that's awesome. That'll make things a lot easier on you I'm sure. Congrats again on the job!

Dude, way to go in and nail them with your counter position! I probably wouldn't have even thought that far in advance!

[pugz]

You're doing great Starry!

[zeewifeandmama]

Yay!!! Glad everything went well!

[barefootcontessa]

Maybe they will meet your demands. Hang in there. You are halfway done.

[Ashley&Scott]

Glad he was understanding. Hang in there you're almost through the day!

Agreed! I am impressed.

I agree too! Awesome! Just remember, you're doing what's best for your family. I'm sure your job would hesitate to do what's best for its bottom line if it came down to it. I hope you are having a great day.

My third pumping session was a lot better - 4 ounces. So I pumped 12 ounces today between 4 sessions and I guess DD has had 11 so far. So I should be close to her needs, but may need to get a quick pump in tonight. Also going to start with the Fenugreek.

They couldn't meet my demands but I am leaving on a positive note. Everyone is being very nice!

Good news all around!

[pugz]

glad everyone is being nice about it!
