To Herb!

May 04, 2007 12:07

I went to lunch today. Herb, the head chef at the restaurant at my work (yes, we have a restaurant attached to the R&D lab), made me my usual sandwich wrap and when I wished him a nice weekend, he told me that it was his last day.

Herb has had some heart trouble recently. He took some time off, had some surgery and came back a short time ago. Apparently, running the restaurant was too much stress for him so he was leaving to do some cooking at another place.

I had no idea what to say. We shook hands, I wished him good luck and he promised to visit.

It’s really starting to feel like the end at work. The lab assistants are preparing their resumes for when they finish their program this summer. I’m getting ready to pass my projects on to other scientists at work. And now, no more Herb.

And right now, Jackie, our sales person, just told me that she is leaving too. Not leaving the company, just the department but still.

It really is the end. At least of this chapter.
