General manager is resigning.

Big blow. He's one of the reasons I like it here.

Goddamn it.

Oh damn. Too soon, feels like you've just barely started! Any chance you can follow him to where he's going?

Something odd happened last week.

He reached out to offer some mentoring because he felt that maybe it would help, which I agreed to.

He must have known he was leaving last week already. Curious to see what this will be about.

so your still meeting before he leaves? interesting.

I think you'll find you don't need mentoring. From what I heard your project management experience was second to none. all your skills in fact. Glowing report really.

A very glowing report!

Yeah I'm super curious to see what this is about. I don't think he's being asked to do it, I think he was offering because he's a good dude.

I'll keep you posted. First meeting is Friday.

Hopefully not overeaching but he's not mentoring you to be his replacement or to take on another role?

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That's what I'm wondering. We'll have to wait and see.

Just going off on a tangent, how's your new car going?

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

So far so good! It's so nice to have it. Makes life so much easier!
