How much should I say? Or should I just walk away?


Today at work, my HR people sent me an exit survey.

This is my shot. I have finally been given the chance to have my final say. And now I think I am about to choke.

I did fill it out in full. It is not based on my fantastic interim job I have now but on the old job… the old crappy, suffocating and demoralising job that made me physically sick and mentally exhausted.

And I actually hesitated to submit it because I am happy again. All the pain and frustration I was feeling a mere six months ago has disappeared. That’s great. I know that’s great to feel that way but part of me really, really wants pay back.

I want my manager and his manager to understand that bullying staff and making work three people’s job, is unfair and bullshit.

Yet today I sat there and answered all the questions about what I liked, what I didn’t like, what should be improved, why I am leaving and then … any more comments to be made? Oh yeah there were comments! Lots of them.

So tomorrow I am going re-read what I wrote and maybe find a more logical way to stick to the man than an emotional one. One where I still feel a little raw about what happened and very excited that I get to tell them all to sod off and walk happily away from that part of my life.

I enjoyed every minute of working with my colleagues and staff, and former team mates, but my manager can shove his arrogant ego up his arse.

Still, I need to pace my enthusiasm; I have three weeks to go until I say au revoir!
