Coincidence? I think not!
Isn't it funny how things seem to happen semi-randomly but then the odd time something will happen that seems to be a little too coincidental? Such as a song that just happens to be playing when some other type of event happens. This morning was one of those times.
On the last day of my last job I was getting into my car listening to my miniDisc player and an Incubus song came on, called 'Nice to know you'. It was so perfect, I mean I can't think of a better chorus than that, for the last day of working for a company you hated.
So today I started my new position at work, in QA, I've been in Tech Support for about 10 years or so, and it was time to change things up. I was feeling very unenthusiastic about things and I really needed something new. Plus I'm really tired of having to talk to people on the phone, and try to solve their problems, no matter how ignorant or semi-retarded they are.
This morning the same song came on, this time on the radio. Coincidence? I think not!
Here are the lyrics for the chorus of the song, if you're not familiar with it:
"I haven't felt the way I feel today
In so long it's hard for me to specify.
I'm beginning to notice
how much this feels like a waking limb...
pins and needles,
nice to know you,
goodbye!"
Congratulations on the change and the very best of luck with the new position! I hope it makes you very happy!

Also it's nice not answering the phone, yeah, that too. :)
