The End of an Era

It sucks, Today at work, one of the best managers in the store has left. Jenko as he’s known by the staff has gone to work for our sister company, to be manager there. Did I mention it sucks. He’s been a manager at my store for as long as I have worked there and probably years before that. He was always there offering advice and a sympathetic ear. He could always tell if I was bored and tried to find me something to do. He even tried to give me occupational therapy. A really great guy. He’s been there for me so many times. He said goodbye and he hopes I achieve all I set out to do. I said good luck. As he walked out the door he blew me a kiss and said ‘you’ll see me again, I’ll be in all the time‘. He knew I was sad to see him go. Oh yeah, it sucks. Then after he walked out the door, I noticed the song playing on the PA system. It was Waiting For That Day by George Michael. The line that goes ‘I know I’ll never see your face again’. I don’t know if I mentioned IT SUCKS. Hopefully he'll come crawling back like some managers have.
