Signed off

CS was consistently chaotic to the last. Two weeks ago I got my last pink slip. As the supervisor filled it in he tallied up my hours. He wrote, 'balance - 1 hour', (crossed out) with 'zero/completed' written underneath. I asked if I had to have anything else to prove I was done. Not that I was expecting a graduation ceremony and a scroll but this seemed a bit too casual. I wasn't surprised that the supervisor was typically vague. All he said was 'I think you are just completed'. So I just did not turn up the next Sunday.

I got a call during the following week, from my offender management officer. I had to turn up one more time to be signed off. So I did. Last Sunday, the supervisor said 'hi'. He didn't know what else to say or do, I guess. I TOLD HIM he had to sign me off. As he didn't have any sort of form to complete he said I should consider myself signed off.

So I came home again. I have now completed... I think.
