“So the time had come for me to step out of my position I held down for almost three years. I quit in a fury, screaming, yelling, talking to the owner and blah blah blah...anyways not much of a concern to me anynmore...

Trip Plan

Start out on A.T. in Georgia at Hogpen Gap.(The point up to which i have hiked on weekend trips)

I'm pretty much used to the GA AT and mountains, so I know my pace is usually about 15-20 miles a day, when i hike solo.

Still not sure whether or not I will be having whole days in some cases...my girlfriend is dropping me off in GA at Hogpen Gap on A sunday and then I'll just hike to whatever point i think ill get to by the weather in a few days time I can tell...oh well not much on trip planning but see you later
toke it easy”

“oh yeah by the way, its been awhile since i posted but hey everyone”

“Dude! Enjoy the time out!

good to hear from ya.”

“oh yeah trip date too


March 18-24? may differ a day or two more later”

“Goin say, have not seen you post since Ithaca.

Have fun!”

“toke it easy?

*giggles*”

“Quitting in a fury? Who does that?”

“I can just see Shep now in front of the whole office yelling, "I'm out out of here! Who's coming with me?!" as one lone secretary picks up her gold fish bowl and goes with him. He has no way of paying her and he finds himself standing in a men's bathroom a week later screaming into his cell phone...

"I LOVE THE BLACK MAN!!!"

”

“LOL”

“More evidence that, "Show me the money," doesn't always work.”

“LOL

It was something to the effect of you arent even giving me enough work to make any money..kinda defeating the purpose of driving there, the boss didnt like my attitude towrds it so oh well...im off to greener pastures...or forests


and no it wasnt a typo pamela..”

“Take this job and shove it. I ain't working here no more. haha. I know the feeling shep. I'm gonna thru-hike this year. I am looking forward to it. I'm thinking the planning stage is as difficult as the trail.”

“i almost screamed at my boss and quit on Friday

I'M AS MAD AS HELL AND I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG** I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M STILL HERE!

i know God doesn't close a door without opening a window somewhere, but where is the freaking window. last weeks pace was so punishing i actually lost five pounds bringing me to a whopping 95!

“

That was my first thought.

Pam, I gave notice then started looking. The experts say to do it in the reverse order. But, I had to give four months notice by contract.”

“yeah, that would cause you to reverse the order of things”

“Couldn't take the stress, lost wieght I didn't need to, tried so hard at something I thought I had a handle on. Had to back off- have an interiew with a placement agency tomorrow. Camping solo this weekend for peace and quiet.”

“Give em Heck ----”

“you still headed to Meriwether Lewis this weekend? The same group that you met earlier this yr will be down there. I am sure we will see you.

bummer about the job but I am sure you will survive”

“Hang in there, goil. I'm just a phone call away if you need to talk. Or, there's always micespace. ;)”

“mice?”

“When one door closes another will open!”

“THANK YOU- I was feeling like I was doing a solo - which would be Ok- knowing I might find friendly faces in the woods only seems BETTER! Looking at an open door tomorrow- then I am headed to the movies for Into the Wild - next stop Merriweather Lewis!”

“The weekend was very therapeutic- the movie, the camping, everyone in hammocks, Me and my cot/tarp. Even a feral cat to entertain us! Drag going back to the office for the final days and seeing 6 days worth of orders, when normally we are within 2-
Yet there is light - my last co is hiring and I have a good chance to go back :)”

“speaking of jobs ending, i just found out that one of the companies in japan that i applied to just applied for bankruptcy and hasnt paid some 4000 teachers for the last couple of months. im glad those jerko's didnt hire me. and the more i read about them, the more i get the impression i didnt get the job because of my age (37)”

“plus they didn't want anymore Jerko's either, thats what bankrupt them. lol”

“Who the #&%!$ is this pitbull character?! Q?!”

“CB I can't believe 37 becomes age discrimenation there too! I got 10 on ya!”
