The Executive Imposter

After a long career in the corporate world this is my countdown to escape. 12 months to go...

@aaron6bay @earthbulb70 @sainsburys @NoShariaHere18 Eloquently put.

Ok, COVID-19 can fuck off now, this is getting ridiculous. Spent the day in London not shaking hands, not touching anything, learning there’s a 3 week wait on hand sanitizer.
Thoughts with those affected.

@fabulucy It’s an important question. Saturdays are for putting such things to the test.

[The Executive Imposter @execimposter]

So for those who missed it...22 days til my escape!!! New life begins in April. DAAAAAHHHH!!!

[The Executive Imposter @execimposter]

@Midgetgems26 Hope you’re ok man.

[The Executive Imposter @execimposter]

@KieranJFarrell Awesome. Keep us posted!

[The Executive Imposter @execimposter]

It’s happening!! Just when I had almost allowed myself to get comfortable in the routine of getting paid regularly for my loveless job, the universe decided to make my decision for me...

[The Executive Imposter @execimposter]

@KieranJFarrell That’s absolutely amazing! Whereabouts will you be based?

[The Executive Imposter @execimposter]

@KieranJFarrell I know, I almost handed my notice in last year too. And the year before that. And the year before that... the payout is an incredible bit of luck, I’m massively grateful. But i should have gone sooner. That’s exciting about the 6th!! What awaits you?

[The Executive Imposter @execimposter]

@SpeciesPodcast He’s having so much fun!!!

[The Executive Imposter @execimposter]

They thought I’d take the job. I’ve never been so excited to disappoint someone in all my life!!!!

[The Executive Imposter @execimposter]

There’s been a restructure on my side of the business and my job no longer exists. I was offered a much easier job for the same pay...or redundancy.

[The Executive Imposter @execimposter]

@fabulucy Joining you in 6 weeks. Couldn’t be happier.

[The Executive Imposter @execimposter]

...on my first day back at work I was told my job was coming to an end!!! Talk about mixed feelings. I have a few weeks to decide whether to do a much easier job (my old role) for great money or take the payoff and try the things I love but with no guarantees. What do you think?

[The Executive Imposter @execimposter]

Haven’t posted for a while as I felt a bit ashamed. I asked you all to follow me on my journey out of the corporate trap but I’d started to relax back into the security of my job... I was too embarrassed to tell you. But...

[The Executive Imposter @execimposter]

...I felt like I’d stressed myself out about money so much I needed some time off from the #escapeplan to just enjoy normality a while. I went back to enjoying the benefits of my salary. Dinners out, some new clothes, an expensive Christmas, it felt great. And then...

Top tip for those allowed to claim expenses:

When treating yourself to a coffee/lunch in town, buy two of everything. Then you can mark it down as a meeting with someone.

What kind of psychopath doesn’t put the arm rest down on the train when you sit next to them?

[The Executive Imposter @execimposter]

@matthaig1 You know it’s a yes!!

[The Executive Imposter @execimposter]

I went in search of the alternatives that no company tells you about til you uncover them by accident. More to follow...
