The Exit

I shouldn’t have even tried to spend a full day at the office on my last day of work before retirement. Even with the exit interview in HR, packing up all my personal effects, and the final luncheon with my close co-workers there just isn’t enough to do to justify staying the whole day. Besides, I already have my final paycheck .

I thought of walking around the building saying goodbye but that would just interrupt everyone else’s routine and bring office productivity down, not to mention cause me to use up several boxes of Kleenex. I did compose and send out the final goodbye email to All Staff. And then I took the final steps...




It’s the end of an era. And the beginning of a new, exciting, wonderful one.
