It's a bit weird being me at the moment. Everything is in a state of flux. I don't think I've used "flux" in a sentence since year 12 physics. Work is particularly odd because I am floundering around trying to work out how to tell my "regulars" that I'm leaving... in a week. I've told a couple of my methadone patients that I'm moving on to medicine and I think they've probably told the rest... it's quite an efficient information sharing network really. But then I'm only MOSTLY leaving so I don't want to make a leaving speech and then see the recipients of the speech a few weeks later when I work on a Saturday or in my holidays. Do I tell them that I'm changing to part time? But I sort of only work part time anyway. As part time as 39 hours over 3 days is.
I think I'm possibly overestimating my significance. But I do know that people get attached to their pharmacist - this was evident from the huge number of Christmas cards/presents piled up in the dispensary. It took me a few months to gain their confidence when I started. Every second conversation started with "Where's X? He was so good to me and helped so much" or something like that. I have much confidence in my replacement and so I am not worried about whether these people will be looked after. It's more worrying that they will feel that I've left without telling them.
Hmmm.
