So long, Fare well, auf Wiedersehen, Good bye…
It’s been quite a six-year run. From lucking into a temporary job with great people, to being hired on the tenure-track with the same bunch, to building some great resources, to convincing my senior colleagues to tenure and promote me. What a lot of fun, on the whole, I’ve had!
Parting is such sweet sorrow and all that mushy stuff…
I will surely miss my faculty, staff, and student worker colleagues - I already do & I’m not quite gone, yet. I suspect I will miss my in-depth, almost-instinctual knowledge of how the library’s systems, at least those I built, are configured. I also suspect I will not have complete admin rights on my new network - so that will be an eye-opener, too.
It has been fun to usually wake up in the morning and head off to work with a spring in my step - because I knew I wasn’t going to “work” so much as go have fun and play — what I did with you at APSU rarely felt like work, it was enjoyment.
TTFN, since I really dislike saying ‘goodbye’ and remember, I’m like a bad veggie - I always turnip (Oi, don’t hit me with your shoe!) :)
