I am convinced they only meet me because I'm a fucking good photographer hahah.
And none of them were happy with work.
I always missed working at Weekender. I didn't care so much for writing food or beauty articles, but I did look forward to writing the occasional rant and being surprised that the followers would read my thoughts and like it.
But who am I kidding, what I love the most is the fucking endless flow of cosmetics and food and gifts ahhh so orgasmic. I still have five cupboards full at home with cosmetics. It could've been more but I gave boxes away. Boxes. Not one or two. Boxes. My relatives never loved me more.
But anyway I'm glad I'm where I want to be now. My manager excitedly called me from his trip and I missed it since I didn't want to handle it during lunch, but it turned out that we made two sales, two days after I joined!
Yes I am their lucky star they better believe it.
We caught up over Din Tai Fung, with them mostly bitching about an ex-colleague at work. I didn't participate much but it was good to have colleagues again. MY NEW WORKPLACE MAKES ME SO LONELY. I HATE IT.
I danced a bit.
And sassed the rest here.
My unevenly home-dyed hair is screaming here.
I'm really glad to see them.
I was afraid on my last day that it truly would be my last time seeing these folks. Weekender was the first full time job I had and the first job I loved, and it was only made this amazing because of the best colleagues.
Seeing them and catching up so easily, despite me having left the company for about six months now, made missing the place easier. I think these two rank pretty high on the girls I miss the most. And I'm mighty glad we're still meeting.
I'm getting sobby so more photos.
My ass is not letting up.
But I've grown to accept it now.
Lester saw me first.
And it was nice. I was upset with him for a while, and I'm sure it was mutual. But along the way, I forgot pettier things, choosing instead to remember him as the editor who texted me, "Coming back office? We got turkey ;D"
Caught up with the rest of them, learning about Zoe and Riki's woes first hand. I think the old workplace is teeming with negativity now. I tried asking them to share one happy news for the road, but they had nothing.
But I'm glad I moved on.
Still supremely glad I met them today heh heh best lunch ever!
