Goodnight, and Good luck

Hey Modem,

The running joke has always been that I would be here forever, and for the longest time, I really believed that would be the case. But...as many of you know, I've made the decision to move on to some other opportunities on the agency side. So alas, my last day at Modem is tomorrow.

The last two weeks have been very bittersweet for me. I'm comforted by the fact that I'm making the right move for myself professionally, but I've been thinking about all the great relationships I've made with people here. Being fresh out of college, I didn't think that some of my closest friends would become those that I worked with. With all that all of us share here, leaving behind the Friday morning breakfasts bonanzas, the side chats, inside jokes, storylines, outings, lunches, and other extracurricular activities which moved days (and nights) along isn't easy to picture. Thanks so much to you for being a part of that.

The other element that I will forever be grateful for is the amount I've learned about my line of work at Modem, and I'm incredibly appreciative to all those who brought me along, allowed me to shadow them, annoy them, answer my dumb questions, show me what the workplace is like, and from whom I absorbed so much from. Although painful at times, I would have gotten nowhere without it. It all worked out really well.

Hope to see you all down the road. Through all the changes, it's been great. Keep in touch if I don't do so myself...

All the best,
AN

P.S. We're at Gaslight on 9th and 14th tonight after work. See if you can stop by. Leaving in a little bit.
