I'm feeling really good right now. I'm energized and excited about the direction my life is going. I have received wonderful words of encouragement from friends both new and old. Today at work (4 more days to go!) I received a letter from a co-worker. He is VERY eccentric and has very interesting views on the world (especially conspiracy theories), but I really enjoy him. So after work I opened my letter. It has probably been years since I've been given a written letter and this one was 4 pages! Some of what he wrote was funny "I've worked with a lot of people...and most of the time I wish I could choke them until their eyes popped out. I've never wanted to choke you!" Some of what he wrote was very sweet and moving " Every time that I come in and know you are here it has lifted my spirit. " "It's rare to meet someone as gifted and special person as yourself and you've set a high standard for what it is to be a great boss." Some was pure him, " I'll take you and Cole to my compound in the mountains and we can teach him to shoot Zombies". Mostly I was impressed that he took the time to write me a letter. Plus he called my kid cool and what could be greater than that?
I'm not going to miss being a manager (of adults) but I will miss the people as individuals. It's nice to feel missed too!

I can't bear to think of it. The B. won't be the same without you.
How cool to get a letter. The person you are speaking of, although unique, is very genuine. I would be very complimented to receive a letter like that!
It will be so sad without you.
I still cant believe that you will not be there. I will have to keep myself from calling you and asking you questions on how to do stuff. I WILL MISS YOU!!!!!
