For Better or Worse

Today is finally the last day of service at the Board... come next week will be a new experience.

Throughout the week... have been stopped by various people asking about my resignation even though we hardly talked much prior to this. Had lunches with a few people... it was the first and most likely the last as well. For some unknown reason... people seemed to be warmer than before.

But it was pretty unusual for most people to give me a pat on the back and commented that I have done well by leaving the Board... the normal reaction I would expect is why I had decided to leave. I suppose the reputation of the department must have been so notorious that colleagues are genuinely happy that I have chosen to jump over to another pasture.

My stay here may have been a short stint... but nonetheless it was still a good experience on the whole... and of course that when it comes to bosses... things can never get any worse than this.
