I'm late doing this, but last Friday July 11th was my last day at UBC. And what did my wonderful coworkers do for me? They got me a going-away present:
I had to show the new pony the picture of the pony I put up in my office:
And c/o Steve MacDonald, Serious pony is serious:
From the WayBac Machine comes the last time I celebrated ponies with such gusto:
That was a going-away present (seems to be a pattern...) from coworkers when I left to start at UBC -- nine days after my oldest son was born. I was at UBC for eight years and one day, and had worked for CHiBi for just about six years.
Today I fly off to San Francisco to start work for OpenDNS; I'll be there 'til Friday getting trained and oriented and I don't know what-all. My dad wants a hoodie, my kids want stickers, my wife wants beer and I want to see it all.
