No more work... Almost
My last of work was unofficially on Wednesday, I am now officially on a three week holiday until the official ending of my traineeship, except I have to go to work one Saturday for the entrance exam for potential new students.
Now that I have left, it almost feels that I wasn't even there. I am not sad that I will not have to go back again except the one time. I will not miss going to work, but there are a couple of people at work that will be strange not seeing. I think the people at work will feel the same. I left much in the same way I arrived, I just disappeared, I had afternoon coffee with a few people and it was nice that someone made the effort to round a few people up who came in at timed intervals to talk to me which I thought was hilarious, but otherwise, it was low key, I'm pretty sure very few people actually know that I have left. I think this goes to show exactly how well I was integrated into the school, I wasn't. While I am not too fussed about this, I would have found it somewhat superficial if they had tried to have a send off afternoon tea or something, I must admit that I am quite annoyed by the fact that not even my direct boss bothered to make the effort to say goodbye. Certainly there are no classes at school so she chooses to stay at home and work and to come to work to say goodbye would be time consuming given where she lives, but she could have sent me an email or something to say goodbye. I actually think it's bloomin' rude to not say goodbye to someone you've worked with and shared an office with for a year.
All of this goes to show exactly how much of an impact I had at the school, more students said goodbye to me than the teachers! I really might as well not have been there the whole year. Now it is over and it was a completely forgettable year.
The only sad thing about it is that it is one more milestone ticked off here which brings the time when I have to leave to go home closer.
