The strangest thing happened to me last week. I started to miss work. No, I do not miss sitting at the desk for 8 hours at the time or the constant decreases in the size of the local workforce or things that irritate me. But I miss doing engineering, I miss the coworkers, I miss the lunches with Heather, I miss rolling my eyes at adversity, I miss the two loudmouth managers a cubicle row over whose comments on the state of their projects and the rest of the World make me spit out my coffee laughing every morning. I have been wondering how my team is doing since I left, but I am afraid of finding out.
