So things were moving around.

I didn't have to commute so I could work on

the side hustle.

And that was it.

I was in great standing.

So they kept saying yes.

And then eventually I gave my notice and I gave a month notice instead of two weeks because I was there for a long time and I knew the transition would take a bit of time to train somebody else.

So I did what I felt was appropriate to really keep that bond.
