A Hole

Jacob left today.  It will leave a hole in my heart.  We have been co-workers since 2000.  We both started out as cashiers way back when and then we both ended up in the warehouse.  He's been unhappy for awhile and it was time to move on.  And it finally worked out for him to do so.  He got another job and I wish him great success.  Perhaps there will be room there for advancement.
I will miss our gab sessions and our friendship on a daily work basis.  I'm sure we will stay in  touch like I do with some of my other friends who used to work with me.  Work is going to feel different though.
That said.....I am going to apply for his job.  Liz said she thought there were still benefits attached to it although not as good as when Jacob got the job.  Any benefits are okay with me as I have none right now.  That position is a guaranteed 20 hour work week and Liz wants to keep it at that.  I would like that.  So we shall see.
It may be time for both of us to grow. And his growing may have helped my own.
