I got back late last night from a great weekend upstate with friends. I’ve spent most of today packing boxes of my stuff in my apartment. It’s beginning to get a little crowded with boxes in here. Friday is the big moving day, so I feel pretty well on top of things, I’ve probably got another 6 or 7 boxes + clothes to go… Penske called today to confirm Friday’s truck rental. Fingers crossed for that…
have just finished the last day of work, very sad to leave. i hate mass emails, but did one anyways, text below:
Short of elementary school, my affiliation with ABC News has been the longest of any in my life, so you’ll have to excuse the sentimental nature of this note. Today marks the end of my (current) journey with you.
If someone had told me as a kid, that I would someday have the opportunity to go to Buckingham Palace with Charlie Gibson or the White House with Diane Sawyer, I would have laughed. But I did. As a kid, I used to break my mom’s kitchen appliances because I liked pushing buttons, so I’m not sure how I was ever allowed to set foot in a network television control room. But I was.
My time here has afforded me some incredible professional experiences and some amazing personal friendships. It has been a privilege to work side by side with so many talented people every day. I do sincerely hope that our paths will cross again some day, but in the mean time I look forward to keeping in touch.
Until next time,
Brad
After posting yesterday about choosing to rent a Penske truck over a u-haul for my move next week, I was happy to see that I had a visitor to the site from a penske domain today. I hope that means somebody in their company is actually engaged in proactive customer service on the web (or at least has a google alert set up for Penske). It’s like companies that have a CSR on Twitter. You have to like that. Nobody visited my site from u-haul, even though I’ve mentioned them a few times in the last few weeks. Already I’m feeling better about my decision. Hopefully Penske comes through next week.
