Retirement Party
My retirement party was more of a roast than a lunch. Several people imitated me talking to myself.
They pointed out I never left my office just once. I always had to come back
for my keys, or phone, or something I needed for a training. They joked about
me being the only trainer in America who didn’t use PowerPoint. Ms. Rella
laughed about me complaining I couldn’t lose weight as I pulled my third or
fourth piece of candy from the jar.
I had been tense about retiring, even though I had started
planning a year earlier. My retirement
party was just what I needed to lighten up.
Today I will laugh at myself, for my own sake.
