T Minus 4 days

It is now down to 4 days before I officially leave this job and I, for one, am already so done with the job.  It's not so much of "oh I'm tired" but more of a "I'm getting really pissed because my last working day could've been last Friday!"

I was put into the stupid milk powder company again to assist a senior of mine, we shall refer to her as Leader Senpai, because she couldn't finish her work in the allocated time. So I was brought in to help her with one of the areas to audit. And when I told her of wanting to go off early she said something along the lines of "dream on. Like I'll ever let you go off early". And this is pissing me off more and more as the days go by leading up to my last day of work.

She keeps consoling me with "you're going to be paid for the extra days you're here anyway." and truth be told, it's not working. Firstly, the fact that she told me that shows that she really doesn't understand me. It's not so much about the money but more about the wasted annual leaves I've worked so hard to earn. It's more about the rest days, not the money I get for throwing those rest days out. I'm an intrinsic person, you cannot buy me over with material things.

That's basically the main reason why I'm pissed beyond reason. I thought she was my friend because if I were in her shoes, I would let my friend go and have a well-deserved holiday after working for this blasted place for 3 years. Let them go off and enjoy themselves before they have to start work again. I guess I overestimated her ability to be human. She's too focused on her work that she has failed to realise that keeping a person from her holiday is the worse thing you can do, both to a friend and to a colleague. 

She has asked me a few times when do I want to go off. I implied that I knew she wouldn't be so kind as to let me go early but I guess she didn't get the hint. But ya know, if a person repeatedly tells you that she wants to go off early but doesn't really mind staying back, you know that she actually does mind staying back, very much if I may add.

So yea, that's all for the update today. I can't wait till I get to go back to the office. It'll feel like a furlough for sure because I feel like I'm a prisoner here, what with being held back here against my will and all.
