To the 9-to-5. The day job (members of the audience heave a collective sigh of relief – all two of them).
Today’s my last day at work. After just shy of 21 years, a twinge of sadness is to be expected – you can’t work with people for that length of time and not develop some kind of friendship – but what’s really blown me sideways is the number of customers who’ve rung up, emailed, or sent embarrassingly large bouquets of flowers.
They’re either going to miss me an awful lot, or they’re really, really pleased to see the back of me.
