I feel like I’ve been out of work for months. Today starts my second day of being out of work. Strange times.

@jerry how does it feel to decompress?

@jerry I know the feeling. It's been a year and a half so far for me and it's driving me bonkers.

@jerry It's inertia - when life moves at a certain velocity, it still feels that way. Take some time to decompress, slow down, and recharge. :)

@jerry what did you do yesterday that feels like a month-long day?

jerry OP ,

@jeff yesterday was Infosec.* server migration day. It was pretty rage inducing at times, but I think it’s more that work previously permeated my every thought, and I haven’t really thought about it other than from the perspective of worrying about my former team and how they’re doing

@jerry

Sounds like you are in a state of mourning where time seems to be irrelevant. This will pass with time. It may get bad at times so you just have to keep busy doing things you love doing outside of a work environment.

Also remember you do have a lot of friends here. Before it gets too bad give us a shout. Venting always helps.

I still have dreams about coworkers from the job I left in 2021. Nothing weird, they're just characters in the dream.
