When I explained why I’d called—that I still owed her feedback—she laughed.
“Isn’t today your last day?”
“Well…yeah?”
I hate loose ends. There’s a self-flagellating aspect to them—I will dutifully pick them up and lash myself.
Braggy, I suppose, to talk about tying up loose ends on my last day. It sure is!
But I also know, as mentioned in a separate post, how critical endings are. People are more likely to remember endings and beginnings than all the stuff in between.
So, how do you want to be remembered? The guy who left a bushel of loose ends to make sense of? Sounds like a tough legacy.
