Today marks my last day at my job after 10 amazing years, and it’s been such an emotional day. I received some lovely cards and thoughtful gifts from colleagues. It’s hard to say goodbye to a place that’s been a huge part of my life, but I’m excited about what’s next. What has been the most memorable goodbye you've experienced in your career?

I got a goodbye cake when I left my last company. Only quit due to relocating, and it was for the best, but that team and place will always hold a lot of great memories for me!

Right!! Definitely bittersweet in that sense. Glad to have had the positive experience, but it makes leaving that much harder.

Congratulations to you! That's so kind of your coworkers to make your last day so special. Hats off to them. I can't say I've had many memorable goodbyes, mostly because by the time it was time to say them, I was very ready to be leaving. I did get a gift card to a local spa from one of my old work besties though. Very sweet and thoughtful of her. That was 5 years ago and we still keep in touch.

Thank you! This is the first time ive ever experienced a nice goodbye too. A spa voucher sounds amazing though! You've definitely made a good friend there.

That is so sweet, sounds like you have great colleagues who all value one another. Good luck on your new adventure😊

Haha, that’s so lovely you must have an amazing bond. It’s brilliant how work colleagues can turn into people you genuinely can’t live life without, I have a few and I am so so greatful😊

It can be so hard to leave somewhere you have worked at for such a long time. I have left several jobs that I was really sad to leave because the people I worked with were amazing.

Absolutely! I have been very lucky. I hope my new colleagues are nice.
