Joel's Last Day
One hard lesson I had to learn in working life was having to accept people come and go. I learned that in the real world but somehow this hurt just as much. I prepared myself 4 months ago to set a boundary between my personal and working life. Even had people telling me to never 100% trust people at work and Joel said the same to me. He even added “including me” at the end. But funnily four months later I find it hard to accept the fact that he’s leaving. Maybe I’m just being dramatic but I’ve only felt like this towards petty crushes or ex best friends. Never towards a colleague, someone I’d sit next to every weekday for 9 hours.
The father of the group, friend, brother, and occasional child when it comes to Hot Wheels - I genuinely wish you nothing but the best in life. Sorry, this post took a while. It was hard to compose myself now that I’m home, alone, and finally processing the fact that there will no longer be “I’ll see you tomorrow” or “Let’s go get coffee” from you. I know you know how great you are when it comes to writing and work so I won’t even bother. I know you won’t forget us at FC, but I hope you know that I won’t forget you. And not just in a polite way, but in a way that you (and Mahi) were literally the first people to help me jumpstart my career. That’s not just something one can easily forget about.
Anyways, there’s no point saying too much I’ll see you Thursday kan
