After he enjoyed watching the reaction of his former boss for several moments, he stood up and strode out of the office, filled with a feeling of gleemancipation. It would only last until around the end of the month, when his rent was due, but for now, Andy simply enjoyed the moment.

So many good words already. I'll have to think about this after I exit MPOW, and head for the carpark. (Only vehiciousexiting going on at this time of the day) I wonder if there will be even a minor thrill as I'm only leaving for a long weekend.
