Well the goodbyes have begun. It’s definitely been a lot more emotional then I thought it would be—I’d be remiss if I didn’t admit that I got a little teary after a meeting I had today with a higher-up. I still need to write my Goodbye email (it’s a rite of passage here), clean up my stuff, sign HR docs, and whatnot. I’m not really sure what it is that has made me so emotional all of a sudden. I’ve had this date set as the last one for so long, but it still seems like it’s sneaking up on me. It’s been 4 and a half years, trips ranging from Wisconsin to Las Vegas, met with lowly IT-folk and CFOs. I have my exit interview in an hour, and now I’m actually worried that I might start bawling. There are tons of reasons why I’m leaving, and that’s not a question, but I really did love working for this company.

  7. It’s definitely sad, but I’m sure I’ll wake up on Monday morning around 10:30 and feel great :)

  9. you really MUST write me and tell me what’s going on mister =)
    every job I’ve left, I feel really horrible about leaving the people, but as soon as I walk outside and the sun hits me, I just smile and it is the BEST feeling. so look forward to that. and write me and tell me how long you’ll be in hawaii ’cause I’ll be heading out that way in a few months…
    take care buddy.
