I'll think of a good title later

Today was my last day of work at Eastbourne Jobcentre Plus.

The day started with a very nice breakfast put on by our manager to say thank you to the whole FJR team for our efforts over the performance year. It was really nice to see the whole section smiling & having a good laugh together for once as opposed to the usual all-hands-to-the-pump craziness. That & there was food involved.

At this breakfast I was embarrassed by the huge shower of goodies that was bestowed on me. Big thanks to all, plus extra thanks to Les, Julie, Lynne & Margaret who each went that bit further & gave me extra goodies themselves which was really touching. The inside of the main card was completely covered with loads of fantastic messages of thanks & support for me. I never expected such a fanfare, all of which I am totally undeserving.

I started leaving the building at 14:00, but it was past 15:00 by the time I'd finished all the farewells. I have never been instructed to increase my use of Facebook so much in my life.

I feel so guilty for leaving.
