Are over.
So, yeah, wasn't I not going to write anything sad? Ok, maybe this is it, really. I've just got a little time on my hands and thought I'd jot down some thoughts on the end of 21 years.
Forced change is quite often good. For me it will be good regardless. Its so odd to stay one place this long. In fact its probably looked down upon. But the fact is the company has been good to me. I've had lots of opportunities and I've been exposed to a lot of different stuff. Whoever knew me in one of my many former lives would never suspect this is where I'd end up.
I mean really. A photographer and video dude in IT. And, I'm actually proud of the fact that worked in data networking. Routers, firewalls, load balancers oh my! Meh, I wasn't the best, but I did it.
So today is my last day here. My last day to be spoiled. No longer will I be able to come and go as I please, spout wisdom from on high, speak as the old man. That's kinda gone. Its good, other things will take its place, but this place will remain special. (and so yeah, I'm the dumbass writing this in my cube with tears in my eyes).
Closing this chapter. The new one is bound to be wonderful. I just wish this one hadn't ended so sadly.
