It can take a little time to get your head around your new reality - major life changes tend to work that way. A couple months after the dust settles, your perspective on this whole corona thing is gonna be completely different.

The jerk that fired me could have let it slide even though I admit I earned it. At the end of the morning shift meeting he announced he had given his 2 wk notice, I couldn't help but express my excitement. He gave me some lip so I blurted out the thing I'd been suppressing since the minute he showed up. I spent a few months of my new life fighting the urge to knock on his door and thank him sincerely for being a jerk and not taking it like a man. It was the nudge I needed to pull the trigger.
