Transcript

My company's unlimited PTO and people love telling me um um it's not actually unlimited. Tell me why I just spent the past month on PTO. It's my last day of employment and I'm at the Met. I spent every single morning at the Met. I get to sit by the water, drink my little matcha and live in the moment. I'm not ready to go back to work. I'm truly dreading it. But you know, I'm a corporate slave, so I guess I'll go back to work tomorrow. This past month has taught me so much about work, life, where I want to go in my life, who I even am, where I'm going in my life. But also I've never felt more lost than ever. I'm gonna tell you guys everything that I did during my month long fun employment. Some stuff I can't reveal just yet. Trust, it's really good. But life is just so beautiful. Summer's here, the weather's great, the sun is out. I'm starting to finally feel joy again.
