So, I’m giving in my two weeks notice tomorrow. It’s coming earlier than I had expected, but it’s what I feel needs to happen for me to be happy.
I haven’t been happy there in a long time. 🙂
That said, there are many things – and people – that I’ll miss.
Thank you to the co-workers who quickly became friends. ..Sharing movies, drinks, laughter, dances, and good times!
Thanks to everyone who put up with my completely work inappropriate jokes (especially those who laughed or played along!), mistakes on the cash, clumsiness and general not-awake-at-allness. Thanks to those who shared laughs, conversation and friendly smiles with me. Thanks to those who made an effort to remember my name.
You’re all wonderful, and really made coming into work an enjoyable thing for me. Best. customers. ever! Just sayin’.
My adventures are taking me to Australia for the next year, but if any of you want to keep in touch, you should let me know. 🙂 —Trinket, The (soon to be former) MG Girl

leaving so soon!
can’t say I blame ya… I’d be headed to Australia if I could too…
we’ll miss ya trink, and the bitch board will have a one minute silence in your honor. best of luck in the land of the roos and diggers.
yeah, do me a favor and kiss a koala for me. 🙂
I’ve always wanted to do that.
I’m so cuddly, I like you
I have no way of knowing but you sound like a little cutie patootie:) good luck with those aussies
be careful of the roos trinkster, when they approach on they’re hind legs, they don’t want a hug
…and don’t lick the cane toads, no matter what the locals try to tell you.
good one ivan, hornier than a cane toad comes to mind after seeing the documentary. fascinating stuff it’s on the u tube
@_@ ..This isn’t a very comforting goodbye.
sorry, you are going to a wonderful country…they are much like canucks but a bit rougher around the edges. au revoir et bonne chance. rawk on baby
and have many awesome critters and slitherers…
take tons of picks Trink!
I like to creep….
Aww cool I’ve been to Australia, good on ya love for going, far out place I reckon. You’ll be sure to meet some top Aussie blokes who’d love to give ya a root. Most of the roos you’ll see are roadkill though, not the cool ones hopping around like in the movie “Kangaroo Jack.”
Wanna stop by Edmonton first on your way there? Just to say hi, get pissed, and have a quick root.
Don’t understand why you’ll miss the Schutzstaffel though.
Anyway, if you want some advice on the Land Down Under though, just lemme know.
Plus they’ve just celebrated “30 years of Electricity” and crikey mate, their proyminister’s a sheila!
Good SS reference Q.
Trink- seriously…. who can possibly take your place down there? I don’t know if I can handle going in there sans-Trinket. But alas… i know i will. I am hooked. Perhaps I’ll even add you to FB so I can heckle you throughout your trip and request inappropriate pictures…. Heh…. who am i kidding- does the term inappropriate even exist in your vocabulary?!?!
I looked in and you were gone.. so I thought I’d just carry on and go someplace else. 🙂 we’ll all miss you.
Heh. Inappropriate. 😀
Absolutely it exists. It’s a very important, grown-up word! I love to see how many times I can twist and utilize it for my own amusement, or alternatively.. to my advantage. 😀
I’ll miss you all too! And yes, facebook! 😀
