The Desultory Defecation

Sporadic excrements of a beautiful mind.

Hello, Goodbye.

Emma from work (who I do not know and have never met) sent me an email saying goodbye as it was her last day today. It was a mass email sent out to everyone in the company. I decided it was only right to reply with my well wishes for her; business etiquette right?

Hi Emma,

I am saddened by the news of your imminent departure. Your tenure at <Company Name> has left a permanent impact on many <Job title>s. Although we have never met or spoken, I feel we share a certain kinship and connection through this company. It is quite unfortunate you will not be present during the transition period to <New Company Direction>. I will put in a good word for you at HR so that you may still get your new <Company Branded> windbreaker jacket.

The new training groups will have to pick up the slack caused by your absence, yet I am sure they along with the rest of <Company Name> wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors. May our paths cross again one day so that I may make your acquaintance.

Best Wishes,

Somebody Turn the Lights OffMovin' N' Groovin'
