Reactions of colleagues when they hear you are resigning

These are some reactions you will get when the news of your resignation is made known to your other co-workers.

Type 1: The try-all-means-and-ways to make you stay
This type is likely to be your buddy or partner in crime at work. Sitting beside you and complaining to you everyday. When you not around, they will have no one to complain to. So they try all means to make you stay.

Type 2: The I'm-gonna-do-it-too
This is the type where usually you wouldn't speak to but suddenly when they heard you're resigning, they come to you to wish you luck and ask you additional questions. "Hey, how was the talk with the boss like? Did she get angry when you ask her that? Can I borrow your resignation letter? 我已经算好了，明年一月去生孩子，放假四个月。在第三个月就交辞职信。刚好！"

Type 3: The I-also-want-to-leave-but-I-can't
Usually these are the old birds who think they are stuck with the job because they can't fly anymore. They will say they envy you can make this decision; they have got a family to feed etc.

Type 4: The well-wishers
Self-explanatory. People who know you better will wish more things.

Type 5: The debt-collector
This type comes after you because you still owe them some deadlines. They will come haunt you till you finally give them the goods.

Type 6: The co-llaborators
They hear that you are going to start your own business and check to see if you will want a business partner because they have been thinking of leaving but have done nothing about it.

Table for 1

On a day that's used to be celebrated by 2 people, I had a peaceful lunch without any interruption - steak and coffee, on my own.

New achievement unlocked!

Postman for a day

Made these little bookmarks for my little twerps. Parting gifts.

Given together with a little souvenir from Penang and the school's praise and post cards

Kinda like the bookmarks. Hope the inspirational quotes chosen for each one of them will lead them to future success

Definitely hope they cherish this. 

And the envelopes were all mailed out by hand. Travelling on my old but worthy cycles.It was fun doing all these on my own free time rather than having to do this as part of a job.
