Goodbye, Dwight.

Today, Dwight, our Company's admin personnel for two years, said goodbye to everyone. He's flying to Dubai on Monday to find his luck.

We knew the news only this Monday. We though it was sudden, and our GM felt a little bad that Dwight told us only now. Good thing GM was able to find a replacement in no time. But still, turning over all the files, the contact numbers of suppliers, clients etc., takes time. But yet again, we cannot do anything about it now.

GM ordered pizza at Yellow Cab so we can have a lunch get together. It was quiet. There were a few questions to Dwight that he answered very briefly, like "what are your plans when you get there?" and "are you excited?" He looked a bit sad, especially Bernard, our messenger, who's been with him all throughout.

When I got here one year and eight months ago, there were only been five regular employees. Now, there are seven, counting the two new graphic artists. We were never close, Dwight and I. But still, the thought that one of my officemates is leaving quite saddens me.

When he said goodbye, he couldn't look into our eyes. He looked a bit flushed, even. Saying goodbye has always been hard. But it's a fact of life. People come in and out of other people's lives. That's a fact.

Goodbye, Dwight. Take care and I wish you the best of luck!
