Agreeing my severance deal from my soon-to-be-former employer.

Being paid to fuck off? That'll do nicely.

I have almost finished my massive chunk of extra work and met the deadline (today) to get a certain percentage of the way through so I will get paid on time and not midway through August like last year. Hurrah!
