“Thank you for the guidance you have offered throughout my career here, consistently and without ever being asked to. Its effect has been considerable and long-lasting. I wish you a retirement as rewarding as the career behind it.”
“You trained half this department, me included. Thank you for the patience it must have taken. Enjoy the retirement.”
“Your actual job was never the whole of it. Somewhere alongside it you trained most of this floor, without a budget line or a job title for any of it. Thank you. Enjoy the retirement enormously.”
“As your career here closes, I want to record what your guidance has meant. It was generous with time, honest when honesty was inconvenient, and offered to anyone who asked. I wish you a long and easy retirement.”
“You taught me this job. I have been passing it on ever since. Enjoy the retirement.”
“I am told you are retiring, which raises the pressing question of who I now interrupt with things I could have looked up myself. Thank you for two decades of never once pointing that out.”
“Some of what you told me fifteen years ago has only recently made sense, which I suspect was the intention. Thank you for the patience of it. Enjoy every part of what comes next.”
