So Long
A few months back, I had to part with the best department a temp ever had. There were hugs and presents and pasta dishes.
You know how you have a job, and you're like, "Aw, man, this job would be great... if so-and-so weren't such and utter and incurable seeping bag of vomit!"
Well, that job didn't have any vomit bags, puke sacks, or even bile totes. It was completely spew-free. I loved them, they loved me. If great sex was a job, it was that job.
So when I left, I was presented with a gorgeous necklace. A pink pearl on a silver chain. Waaaaaaaaay better than I deserve, perhaps...
I also got The Obligatory Card That Everyone In The Department Signed. Only there was nothing compulsory about the notes inside. "You are a joy to work with!" "We will truly miss you!" "Please come back and visit us!"
And then there was the inscription from Chris:
"Thanks for the baked goods and sarcasm."
Suddenly, I'm Wenchie's Guide to the Galaxy. "So long, and thanks for all the sarcasm."
Warms the cockles of my heart. I think I've found my epitaph.

We will miss her cakes and sarcasm.
Awww, I'll miss you most of all, ScareChris.

Wenchie, seriously, you are too cool.
I'm going to have "42" stuck in my head for the rest of the day now. ;b
