Woo-hoo! Wonderful to see you, Shang. I hope that all works out for the best for you.BlackShanglan said:I have given my employer many things in the years of my service - my time, my energy, my passion and my precision, my sweat and tears, my joys and sorrows, and at times, I suspect, my sanity.
I've given them my servitude in times of exhaustion, my patience in moments of deep frustration, and my suffering on days when I worked through pain with gritted teeth. I've given them my faith, often ill-returned; my dedication, often squandered by those above me; my determination, which seemed often to exist in spite of rather than in harmony with my superiors.
I've given them my love, for I have loved my colleagues and my work; I have given them, at times, my health.
All of this being insufficient, I began to despair. I had nothing left to give them, and the wellspring of my duty was at last dry. I feared that I had given my last. But ah - I have found one more thing to give, and it is better and sweeter than all of the rest.
I have given my notice.
