OK the shock is settling in and I am appreciating it. I am starting to do some things to make things better. I just sent out the email at the bottom and I feel so good about it.

Being present when things suck hurts like hell. I think I am finding that being present when you get past that hurt is very rewarding. And then it dips into hurt again. It will be an interesting ride with my eyes open this time.

I sent the email to the entire company and my boss said it was perfect when she read it.

——————–

I am going to miss everyone. I have loved working here and think this is one of the greatest companies I have ever worked for. I am really going to miss answering people’s questions.

Feel free to ping my home email shipofoolsXXXXXX.

I should be here for the rest of the day making thing neat and tidy so they can be picked easily by Dave and my replacement. I am not doing any new formatting jobs but if there is something you think of that you want from me before I go, now is the time to ask. (ok you can ask later but I won’t have as many resources).

Gina Palmer will be leaving Ne\N at the end of the day today. I know you join me in wishing her well in her next endeavors. She will be missed.

We will be seeking a replacement candidate very soon. In the meantime, Dave will be working on Wednesdays and Kevin will be available for additional hours as to fill the gap.
