Hullo Pat,
I know that feeling of having made a thrilling escape from a bad employment situation. I'd dearly love to go over the wall at the university where I work now. There's simply this exquisite pleasure in knowing that a supervisor who has made your life a bloody misery for a long time -- and to whom you had to kowtow -- no longer holds any sway over you at all. In an instant, they go from all-powerful to utterly powerless. How can you NOT smile when the mean and "mighty" are so deservedly brought down a peg so quickly? Cheshire Cat
