Ugh!
So much for keeping a secret. Brain was telling me not to forward the email but alas I forgot. I'm so bad at keeping secrets, even my own. It's hard living a double, triple, quadruple life!
So I was trying to do a good thing. A colleague reached out to me about Call Center #1. And you know me, give me an inch and I take 2 miles. She also said she was feeling a little bit of job insecurity. So I thought hey, I'm leaving Call Center #2, why don't I just refer her for my old spot. That's how I got on this train to New Job.
Super fail!
I mean nothing bad happened, but remember how I was not planning on telling anyone in my personal life about New Job (or new house). Fail! In the email to the recruiter, I mentioned that I was leaving and I was forwarding the resume of a colleague. Well I also forwarded that email to the Colleague!! Now she's asking where I'm going??
Side note, no one at work even asked, not even my manager. I did all that prep work for nothing.
Ugh, I only even forwarded the email so Colleague would know I did what I said I would do (also that's what that on Speckled Peer I have does) and it wasn't just a gratuitous offer. Trying to be open and transparent and all. I regret that. But as I was deleting out the recruiter's info, I should have just caught myself and not forwarded anything at all.
I should wait a week to respond to Colleague but I obviously want to wake up tomorrow not thinking about this, so I'll likely be responding shortly.
Oh to add another sourball to the mix...
I, in the spirit of doing no work, joined an online meeting for a new project. I figured I probably didn't need to since I'm leaving on Friday. However, I also didn't want to be in the queue to take calls. And I was also curious if the lead for that project would say anything. Well imagine my surprise, when one of my leads pinged me to say I didn't need to be in the meeting.
I was annoyed. Not only were my plans foiled, but it makes me wonder who told My Lead I was even in that training because only 2 of my teammates were in the training. Tattle tale much?! I don't want to get too excited but that's another stroke in the I'm Happy to Be Leaving Column!
