Super excited tonight, I received an oral job offer this evening

Long story short, I have spent 5 years for a company that has over time grown more and more toxic.

When I took the job, I thought it would take me into retirement. It became so toxic, that I had to do something.
Once I started looking, I started getting calls from recruiters and one turned into an interview.
I nailed the interview. I knew I nailed it when I left that day.

Between that day and the offer I recieved, i was called into the office and berated in front of a coworker because somehow it was my fault the coworker didn't share information I needed to do my job. I sat there tight lipped and all I could think about was about the interview. Even today the manager showed little respect.

Now I get to turn in my notice. I can hardly contain myself. I have gone 5 years with no performance review or a raise.

Now I just have to fight the urge to give them a tube of KY with my resignation, because when I leave, they will be left with one engineer who has neither the experience or knowledge of the business. I will probably not, but it makes me feel good thinking about it.
