Wed Mar 09 11:47:18 yea, nay: will miss: My job. I really like the people I work with, and the different kinds of challenges I have every day. I'll miss the opportunity to have input over the direction of the department and the campus infrastructure, and I'll miss the laid-back attitude. While I'm ready to not spend almost every day of my life at $UNIVERSITY, I'm going to miss the friendly faces and community I've established here... after all, I've lived here for over a third of my life (this fact is still shocking to me). I'm afraid of ending up in an inflexible job I don't enjoy and/or don't find challenging. Sometimes this job is not challenging, but that's about the worst thing about it I can think of.
won't miss: the smell of the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal. Actually, I'm not sure if the canal smells itself, but up on the North Side where I live, it runs along the parks and up into Skokie next to several water reclaimation plants and I think the Deep Tunnel project. Anyway, the unmistakable smell of sewage is impossible to separate from the canal, at least in my mind.
