Short Timers Disease

The inability to care about your job or that of your co-workers when your departure from your place of employment is imminent. Symptoms include some or all of the following: coming in late; making excuses to leave early; an ever-lengthening lunch hour; cleaning your desk weeks or even months in advance of said departure; treating co-workers like crap because you are leaving and they are staying; telling everyone and anyone who does or does not care about the details or the new job.
Man does Steve has a bad case of Short Timers Disease.
Short time, Short Timer

short timer syndrome 

The behaviors that kick in when you are about to leave something, usually a job. There are two facets, one is that all of the little crap that you've been ignoring and tolerating starts driving you crazy. The other is the idea that you're leaving anyway so you can get away with anything.

short bus 

Generally, the short bus is a smaller version of a regular school bus that carries mentally challenged students to school. On rare occasions, if your school board is a bunch of assholes (like mine), you will be forced to ride in a short bus for field trips if you class contains less than 18 students.
