Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

I am by no means psychic, nor am I able to credibly predict the future in most circumstances. That being said...

I am reasonably certain that some of the powers-that-be are unhappy that I am taking off the week of Christmas and then being let go at the end of December. They were really hoping I'd be able to teach everything I know to the guy who is staying on. However, he is taking next week off, and I have off the week after, and then he has a few days off at the end of the year, so I will only see him tomorrow.

I am about 90% certain that they are seriously considering telling me my vacation has been cancelled (after being approved months ago) so that they can get one last week of knowledge transfer. Which they won't be able to do, because I have already bought nonrefundable tickets, and I will still be taking that time off. I mean, what are they going to do, fire me? They've already told me I'm gone after the 31st.

On the other hand, there's a nonzero chance that the middleman company will tell me I'm done on the 19th when the rest of their staff is done, in which case it's all a moot point!

On the one hand, I have some stress to be back on the unemployment line. On the other hand, the relief of finally being done with the utter shenanigans that have started happening around here may exceed that stress by an order of magnitude. Seriously, some of the higher-ups could write books about being the most horrendous human beings.
 

I'm a PC gamer and hearing the financial news folks talk about GPUs as a new thing and something that only Wall Street cares about is making me crazy.

The AI bubble needs to pop so I can have the draw distance in World of Warcraft set to infinity.
i'm going to upgrade my GPU next month before it really gets bad again, my ram is okay 48gigs but my gpu is a bit behind RTX 3060 12 gig, i'm eyeing the rtx 5060 16gig
