I don't know if you have read, but I'm down to my last 15 days at work.
Like any other people who decided to resign/quit their jobs in a nice manner would have to serve a notice period. During this time, it is when you are supposed to handover their existing/remaining tasks in hand to a colleague who is going to take over your position.
However, mine was a little different.
I received a phone call from a colleague of mine to take over a new task and expected to complete it, before I leave. Which means all the paper work, calculations and drawings have to be handed in ETD 15 days.

I am not complaining really, because it keeps me occupied.
Ever since I have completed my work, I tendered my resignation letter and have been literally shaking legs since. Usually my day at work would begin with me clocking in (literally!), heading out for breakfast, back to my workstation and do light surfing, and then to lunch, yak with the colleagues, continue the day with more light surfing and also catch up on TVB dramas and then it would be 5.30pm.

Sounds awesome-possum eh?

No. You are wrong. Maybe it is fun during the first few days, but then it gets boring and routine, and you run out of dramas/series to watch, and the newsfeed on facebook has nothing posted (if you keep refreshing every 10 secs that is!), and eventually, your life gets meaningless. You don't even know why do you ever need to serve such notices and it is a waste of mental juice....get the drift?

So anyway, I have work to be done in 15 days, which I have it 50% completed. Oh well.

My colleague once told me, the longer you are in the work force, you will learn the term "Pull the brake!" which means, you don't have to work so efficiently, because you don't want new tasks, but you want to keep yourself occupied during office hours at the same time. 


You learn a lot when you join the work force, and this is just the beginning, baby.
