I'm thinking it was the later, because I am not one to just hang up on someone (guess it was how I was raised), UNLESS I am really X( X( X( X( (which doesn't happen too often) and then I really don't care, but it still bothers me, it is really disrespectful I think!

That's most excellent! You're effectively getting a raise, you know. Look at all the gas money you'll be saving. You could bike to work - or walk.

I have a shorter commute now, too (as compared to when I lived in AR). I live just over a mile from work now; my daily commute is a 1/2 mile walk to the train station and a 5 min train ride. Beats the heck out of fighting traffic, and I save at least $100/month in gas money.

Funny you say that... .I just said the same thing to my #1 Gal, about an hour ago... damn, $60 bucks to fill up, I haven't seen that in a long while, guess gas prices are starting to go up! ;)

That is always the rough part of leaving a job that you've held for any length of time. :wizard:
