Farewell to A Brother

10-17-2009 Saturday

Part of the reason why I'm able to still go to work in spite of the pressure and stress, is because I have a wonderful set of colleagues in my team, who are able to make me laugh and simply be a family by my side whenever things get rough. That's why I'm able to manage somehow. The thought of seeing them, knowing that they're beside me thru the good and the bad, makes working somewhat easier.

Even though things seemed perfect as far as working with the best team mates, I know it's not always gonna be like this. A time will come when we have to go one by one. Like this week, Raymond, one of my brother from another mother, filed his immediate resignation. We were all surprised by his sudden decision but as much as we would like for him to stay, his mind is made up, and for whatever reason he may have, we have no choice but to accept the fact that he's leaving us, wish him luck in his future endeavors and move forward.

We, as a team, are more than just colleagues to each other. I know I've mentioned that in more than one post. It's sad that one brother has to go, that also means a big chunk of laughters, jokes and fun will also go with him. A piece of a picture perfect puzzle will be taken off. Well, if that's how it is, we just have to deal with it.

As for my personal message to him, (this is something I wasn't able to write on that memorabilia that our manager created for him); Mah men, stay strong. I know you have the guts to succeed, you must've chosen a different path away from us but I believe that you only did what you think is good for you.We'll miss you, brother.
Oh and don't you dare forget that;

*At Sprint, we lose customers literally!
*We're taking calls in a farm, in a highway and sometimes we even experience a loud crash!
*Aux means life. Auto In means death.
*We should always be on a lookout for pretty and sexy girls, in other words, delicioso!
*Our phones have mp3, camera, bluetooth and the best thing about it is that...we can make a call!
*We have a department called Telesirs, 'we're all men here'.
*Americans are dumb. We're way too smarter than those Caucasians.

Good luck mah men! Thanks for the memories.
