Migration

It's been a while since my last post in this blog. And so many things had happen to me. One of which is moving to a new company. And I have numerous friends who have been asking for the copy of my farewell letter to the former co-employees I left behind. Here is how it went dated on 18 Oct 2008:

To: xxx
Subject: Good bye too

Hi Everyone,

Before leaving this wonderful office, I would like to share something I learned from previous employers, you see there’s a tradition that before leaving, the resignee would present a farewell song and would speak of all the super positive attributes to his/her co-employees and to the company. But obviously I cannot sing and secondly, I don’t lie… hehehe just kidding. Seriously I would like to thank you all for trying to be extra nice to me through the years, and it actually almost convinced me that those were sincere…again JK only =).

One thing I would like to straighten up is the rumor swirling the past few weeks that I am leaving the corporate world to enter the film industry. Although it almost came true but I declined doing porno films, due to the fact that as a true Christian who believe in moral values and being raised by upright Catholics, I did not come to terms with the producer mainly to the fact that schedule of doing porno films will be done at night. I should be gone to bed sleeping at those wicked hours. So to Mr. Anunciato, I am flattered by the offer but sorry I cannot accept it, for now. Although I may recommend several people whom I have a gut feel will strive to become big in adult film. Most of which are recipients of this email.

On a lighter side, I have so many memorable moments to treasure during my stay here with Oracle. Those were personal milestones that will forever be carve in my heart. During my first year, I got married to my wife. After a few months later she gave birth and made me an instant Dad. Oh life is such bliss. On my second year, I got food poisoned during one of the company party. Luckily everybody survive but the trauma stayed. Then, few weeks later my laptop got sabotage, a virus hit all my files and erasing the most important files kept for years. It almost turned me mad. Although, the nervous breakdown is not as often as was before but I can now think straight like a normal human being.

Again, an endless thank you to everybody. I hope that one day our path will cross again and that by that time I’ll be 1000 times richer so I may be a little snobbish then. So don’t forget to bring a picture of you and me to show that one time we were once co-employees.
I am so inspired by the friendship gained from everybody that I made a farewell video. I hope you can give an ample time to watch how pathetic I have become. =)

It's really sad to leave but I have to move for the better.
