7.15am, I reached office this morning. I parked my car and admired the serene surrounding.
It was rather a busy day for me today. I had to finish up whatever was required and also clear up my cubicle.
After having my farewell lunch (it was a long one), organized by the Sales and Education department, I handed over all documents and projects on hand to my mentor. I took her through all of the folders in my lappie. I felt really sad when I was doing it…..
After taking her through it, she walked back to her office. I started a super quickie scan-and- throw- process.
Later, I heard my mentor’s door closed. She was ready to leave for the day. She walked to my cubicle and I could feel the sadness in both of us. She said goodbye and wished me all the best. She put down her lappie bag and gave me a hug. Gosh, tears almost came out! Both of our eyes and nose turned red….
“I better get going before the both of us start crying….” Those were the last words I heard....
Everyone left the office by 7-ish. I packed up all my personal items and left everything else behind. I didn’t have time to really look through everything. By the time I was done, it was already 8pm and I was super late for an appointment. My car was full of stuff – in plastic bags and in boxes. Gees…like shifting house!
At 8.10pm, I locked the glass door for the last time and hopped on to my car. It was drizzling and depicted the mood I was in…….
Today marked the day. The final day. I really didn’t expect it to happen so fast; in such a short notice. Phone calls and emails came over the 2 days after my email was sent out...
I felt it was as if I walked out from a 4 years relationship. And the worst thing is "I left because I found something better for my future"....
So many events happened over the 4 years. Ups and downs; events and happenings brought us closer; just like family.
I had a really good time in the company. Good memories. (I am happy and glad that I was recommended by my Country Manager for this new job offer)
