Sleep 0615 to 1315. (7 hours)

• Last employed weekend. Trying to make sure I don't leave loose ends before I lose access: get pay slips as PDFs, check my contact info is correct, etc.

Sun Oct 02 2022

Sleep 0430 to 1230. (8 hours)

• Last day at Oracle. Now looking at the internal hire process it is way too late to start now. Not that I really cared one way or the other.
• Mom and Dad back from Switzerland. Family dinner at Steph's. She made beef stew.

Mon Oct 03 2022

Sleep 2330 to 0430. 1100 to 1400. (8 hours)

• I'm officially terminated.
• Reading my severance package. I'm getting a lump sum of $29k (minus taxes). I wonder where that's coming from? Oh, it's 4 weeks pay (first year) + 15 weeks (1 week per year after the first and I was rehired Sep 2006) - 8 weeks (the two months I was "working" at Oracle after RIF notice) = 11 weeks.
• As part Older Workers Benefit Protection Act (OWBPA) I get a doc listing the ages of people in the RIF (reduction in force) orgs and the number selected and not selected for RIF per job title+age combination. To show there is no age discrimination.
• Small favors but since I got an ACH for three days of work that satisfies my bank account premium status for this month in order to get interest.

Sleep 2345 to 0145. 1000 to 1600. (8 hours)

• Now that I no longer have to worry about Cisco vpn software I can upgrade macOS. macOS 13 Ventura is coming out this month so might as well wait a bit longer and skip macOS 12 Monterey.
• Did a wipe and clean system install on my MBP 2015. It's cool that you can network boot (Command-Option-R), then launch Disk Utility, wipe the drive, install the latest macOS over the Internet.

Wed Oct 05 2022

Sleep 0030 to 0200, 0730 to 1100. (5 hours)

• San Mateo E-Waste recycling event Oct 15 starting at 09:00. But I need to get to mom and dad's in time to go to dim sum at 11:30 so don't think I have the time. Next time I guess.

Thu Oct 06 2022

Sleep 2300 to 0030, 0745 to 0945. (3-1/2 hours)

• Right leg has been acting up. Gets sore when I try to sleep so maybe elevation change does it more. But even during the day I'm hobbling around.

Fri Oct 07 2022

Sleep 2330 to 0330, 0730 to 1230. 90 min nap (10-1/2 hours)

• Feel like I was catching up on sleep.
