I spent a bit over 11 years on my last job and over that time I brought in a lot of my books (a tall bookcase full) from home, along with a few other items. When the writing on the wall became to obvious to ignore I started taking a couple of books home every day or so until I got them all out of there. The last items were a couple of large, framed, posters and those went away one at a time. Curiously, no one ever commented on the departure of my personal belongings from the office.
When the day came that I was told I was “no longer needed” all I had was a very small box of personal stuff left to carry out to the motorcycle that final day… just as I planned it. But then I also picked the day by deliberately saying something I knew would be annoying and precipitate my push out the door, it worked 8^)
