Changing jobs

The one thing I hate about changing jobs is handing over my stuff to the person taking on my old job.  Its the time when I’ve got to  clean up all those little crappy tasks that I’ve successfully avoided  doing, get my  barely existent filing system into some sort of shape where someone other than me can figure out where things are, and write notes and instructions on how I do various things (tasks that are so familiar to me now that I just do them without having to think about it).

  2. Thanks for reminding me that I have to do that at work :( Then again, I’ve only known about the job change for a week…

  3. It’s a weird feeling knowing that someone is soon going to be drilling into the things you’ve worked on for “x” amount of time.

    I know that when I’ve moved into someone elses position and had to go through their stuff, it seemed kind of weird. You begin to wonder why the person is leaving; whether they got fired of decided to quit. If they got fired, why? If they quit, why?

    I’ll tell you one thing though, through the years of working with files that other people have put together, mainly with programming, I’ve learned how to work with all sorts of code and learned the do’s and don’ts of organization!

    In the ideal world, everyone is organized equally. Our best bet is to keep doing what we’re doing and avoid becoming robots to society!
