So I rock up to Head Office, feeling all empowered at the prospect of a new start. I'm here to drop my car off (ahhh, the mazda 6, what great memories we have like the time when i drove into a wall in a car park in High Wycombe, stupid multi stories!) and complete an exit interview.
As I wonder round the building saying goodbye to people, I actually feel quite sad, it's the end of an era. I think about all the friendships I have made and long will those friendships continue thanks to facebook.
On the way out, I decide to drop by Mr CEO's office. In all fairness he stops his meeting to have a chat with me. I have a particular soft spot for Mr CEO... He is neither old or grumpy which you would expect with the job title but rather quite brilliant and charismatic.
We chat for a while then he looks me straight in the eye and confidently says 'You'll be back Rach', I hold his stare and reply 'Sure, when you have a place on the board, give me a buzz' (What a cool parting shot!!)
It is an emotional day which I was not expecting and I even questioned myself 'I'm I doing the right thing leaving?' Then Mr T calls and asks if I fancy meeting him in Birmingham for a bit of shopping and a night fuelled with champagne... All previous thoughts are forgotten as I jump on the train to meet him....
