Resignation

[trinityofone]

Dear Trin's Boss:

Please accept this letter as formal notification that I am leaving my position as an Associate Editor with [Magazine] on March 21.

Thank you for the opportunities you have provided me during my time with the magazine. I feel that I have learned a lot, both about magazine publishing and the entertainment industry in general.

If I can be of any assistance during this transition, please let me know.

Sincerely,

Trin

Submitted!

And the icing on the cake (which I saw after I made the decision to quit): check out this post about the death of Premiere Magazine. Then look at the comments. Yeah. That's where I've been working.

Also, a song for quitting.

Is Desiree your literary pen-name?



Fuck. I liked Premiere. Oh well, I couldn't afford it anyway.

Is Desiree your literary pen-name?

Nope! Other people I totally don't know feel this way too! It's rather vindicating!

I liked Premiere, too. It was actually about movies.

Yay for staving off the impending ulcer! :D

[trinityofone.livejournal.com]

Yeah! And I figured, hey—more time to devote to sgabigbang!

[tikiaceae.livejournal.com]

You did it!

Here's to the better and shiny future for you. *toasts*

[trinityofone.livejournal.com]

I did! Thanks for listening to me wangst about it last night. ;-) I really do think it helped.

*takes a deep breath*

Cheers! :D

Congrats, honey. May you fiddle while Rome burns and then find something so much better.

[trinityofone.livejournal.com]

Heh. Thanks!

And that reminds me, I'm totally going to steal these spare Rome DVDs before I leave... ;-)

Go you! Here's to relaxing and happier times!

Also, hilarious the panic people are having at the idea they'd have to read that other magazine. ;)

[amireal.livejournal.com]

I would put you on my shoulders, but even metaphorically that kinda hurts atm.

*claps loudly* YAY YOU!

[neery.livejournal.com]

Whee, you did it! I'm happy for you, and I'm sure you'll be fine even without the Job From Hell.

*twirls you around*

Go you!!!

[trinityofone.livejournal.com]

*dances*

Thanks for your encouragement, too. =)

[wychwood]

Yay for you! :)

You know that lovely, wonderful feeling when the weight goes off your shoulders and you're just stuffed full of glee with the whole world, all the other various issues and worries taking a much needed vacation?

May that feeling last a long, long time for you. Congrats :)

[siria]

*smishes* I am proud of you, honey. That is more class than they deserved, to be honest.

Phone call this weekend?

[trinityofone.livejournal.com]

Thanks. I only wish I had done it two months ago, so I could have come see you guys. But better late than never!

Phone call this weekend?

Really? I'd love to! How can we arrange it?

First of all, congratulations! You hated that job so much and NO YOU'RE FREEEE!!

Secondly, I almost died at this comment:

MHL's slave-driving editor/publisher steals from babies and eats kittens for dinner while hawking Lindsay Lohan's favorite lipgloss and ugly gold junk your grandmother wouldn't wear.

EATS KITTENS FOR DINNER!! NOOOOOOOOOOO!! (but it's probably true, lol)

[mirabile-dictu.livejournal.com]

Good for you! You deserve so much better!

[randomeliza.livejournal.com]

YOU DID IT!!!!

Congrats, my dear. *hugs* You'll make it through this, and find something even better! I wish I were there with you so we could have a big ass Hooray For Quitting party.

Congratulations!

[diluvian.livejournal.com]

Woot!

[setissma.livejournal.com]

YAAAAAAAY!

[faith-girl222.livejournal.com]

congrats!

[hypothalamus.livejournal.com]

Oh oh oh, you worked at the crappy magazine of hell and death and hell? Good for you for quitting!

I second the motion for pen and post-it and DVD theft. Quick, pick up a copy of The Bad Girls Guide To Getting What You Want.

It's too late to get yourself fired in a fun way, but they have lots of great tips on stealing crap from the office. Play your cards right and you won't have to buy toilet paper for months! People really underestimate what it feels like to have financial freedom from toiler paper.

Congratulations!!!

[toft-froggy.livejournal.com]

Fantastic! *cheers* Hurray for new beginnings and the abandoning of crap!

[sheafrotherdon.livejournal.com]

That is SO AWESOME. YAY. *twirls you and uses The Stick for majorette shinanigans*

[porntestpilot.livejournal.com]

YAYYY TRIN! Awesome!
