Where's the love?

Everyone knows your boss is a complete idiot, but there's no need for you to officially say so now just because you are outside the firing line. That's just poor form. Besides, what if your paths cross again?

Stop caring about your work
So you just want to serve your remaining time and get out, but look at it this way – here's a chance to make everyone realise how much your work will be missed.

Rage against the machine
Your computer's the only thing slower than your boss. But you've only got a month to go. So don't damage office property just because you can afford to do so now.

Add to office gossip
So you are the only one who knows the truth about that failed sales pitch or the office siren that your colleague's been seeing. Zip it. Don't even think about it.

Mess up the farewell speech
Just because everyone's been polite and asked you to "say a few words" doesn't mean you have to go on about how "working here has been a wonderful and unforgettable experience." Really?
