I had a weird dream last night

I dreamt

I left my job at ms
for a job at
a company
which I had previously
worked for a very short time
only
in real life
it doesn't exist

but in the dream
I had worked there before

in the beginning,
I was talking with
them about the opportunity
and then
my current boss
quit ms
and joined this company
so I
did as well

not sure why
I guess I figured
it must be the
right move

in the dream
the company
a dot.com-ish company
was located across the
street from a
strip club with
a Yiddish-ish name
there was this
Israeli guy I knew
waiting out front
for it to open
so he could get a job
there

only
I don't know
that Israeli guy
in real life
nor the
strip club
for that matter

I remember
eating
chocolate covered cookies
you know the white ones
that are half covered with chocolate
and drinking
coke
which
in life
I never do
unless it has bourbon in it

my managers's boss
at ms
came to visit me
on the third day

and was pissed off
said that I
fucked him
by taking off like that
said that he tried to cover for me
said that I had gone to get married
and
the developers had
worked over
my office real
good with decorations

but it was too late now
I seemed to realize
at that time
that I had made a
mistake
and
tried to change my mind
but he said it was
too late

after he left
I realized
that since I
left
I had to pay back
my signing bonus
that ms gave me

I realized that
I had not even asked
what my new salary
would be
nor negotiated anything

it was just after 5
and the HR person
was playing quake
or something
I asked her
to look something up
for me in my file
so I could see

but my file was empty

just worn and battered
folder
with
my name

so I went
and
had a coke
