So That's What I Told Her.....

So the classic question you use to avoid awkward conversations.

"I have a good news and a bad news. Do you want to hear the good news first or the bad news first?"

I told her about my termination of probation and the promotion to my executive role, and the crap that goes with it. 2nd day into my role, I already felt like running into the other direction.

Then I told her the ACTUAL news that I wasn't too sure how to tell her.

Yeah, sorry mother, I'm not coming back to Japan for a wee holiday til next year, but I'm going somewhere that takes equally mid distance and costs about the same amount.

But although that may be a bad news for you, it can't be any better than that for me.

I'm counting down..... 22 days to go.....
