Feb. 22nd, 2006 09:33 amLast night, my boss took us all out to Elephant and Castle for munchies and drinks. It was a sendoff for me and for our head technical guy, L--the most senior member of the company after the boss--who's leaving on the 28th to sort of temporarily retire.
It was fun while the boss was there. He paid for all the munchies and drinks until he left, so that was cool. Then he left, and the party REALLY got started. Oy. We were drinking, laughing, taking embarrassing pictures of each other...oh man. It was probably the most fun I've had with the work crowd. Good way to end my stint here.
I'm still hoping to get people together at Sunset on Friday, by the way. I know
leenah and
cutieyum will probably make it. Anyone else wants to show up, let me know.
So L, the other guy who's leaving, gave me a card and a gift-wrapped package this morning. The card said nice stuff about how it's been a pleasure working with me, and the present was a 512MB flash drive! He'd been surprised when I said that I didn't have one the other day. That was so sweet. I think I will get him a card (something silly) and maybe some dark chocolate (his weakness). After all, he won't be here anymore where we refill the candy dish on a regular basis!
Damn, I have the munchies something fierce today. I had a sandwich with 2 slices of nearly-fat-free ham and one egg's worth of Eggbeaters this morning...and I'm already hungry! Want food. Meh.
