is it just me or is it crazy how close one becomes to their coworkers? it makes sense, i guess, since you spend the majority of your time at work.

my team is particularly close. they are the main reason i find it so hard to leave the company. my boss is like our mother. she worries about our health, our finances, our living situation, our relationships, our career. she lectures us on what we should be doing -- driving hybrids, eating organic, saving the world. yet she hates when we call her mom. haha. i listen to all her advice. sometimes too much. i find myself saying "but steph said..", "steph told me...", "let me ask steph". haha.

then there's the rest of my team. when i first started, i was afraid i wouldn't fit in. now they're my homies. my bros. we make fun of each other like we've known each other for years. i'm known as the one that's food obsessed. surprise surprise.

we're still on a mission to leave as a team and get re-hired somewhere else as a team. wish us luck.
