Today is my last day at work. I’ve been really fortunate to work at Paladin these past several months. I’ve been working as a recruiter with my good friend Antje. The work is good, the pay is more than fair and the environment here is really awesome. We have a couple of kittens here that entertain us and Leslie brings her toddler daughter, Reese, a couple times a week. Sometimes, Antje brings one of her dogs to play up here, too.  Its very relaxed, but busy and the office has been at or near the top sales branch in the company.

Anyway, today is it. I have a couple of job orders I’m still working on, but mostly its going to be cleaning up last minute items and informing my better customers that I’ll no longer be here for them.  Its sad, as passings always are. The last day at a job is always full of emotion. Sometimes, its a good thing to be leaving. Other times, like now, it makes me a little melancholy. Its been a good job that fit well with my abilities and style.

I’ll miss the people, the place and the pace.  Of course, today is just a taste of what is coming between now and lift off when I’ll say goodbye to everyone else here in Texas. I’ll probably leak a little around the eyes some.
