The time has come...

Mand — Fri, 18 Jun 2010 08:49:41 GMT

..........I'm off.
After 4 years of being in Comms it's time for a change.
I'm not leaving the company though, I've got a new role in what is now Engineering (but still called Dev to all of us ).
I'll be heavily involved in the project process, which is a continuation of what I've done from the Comms side for the last couple of years.
Today is my last day in Comms, but I expect I'll still pop into the forums from time to time.
Thanks for the laughs (and the grey hairs :P), and be nice to the new guys in my absence.

So, you are giving up the baseball bat for a large size monkey wrench then?

There'll be some CSC staff breathing sighs of relief now.
Anyway thanks for all your sterling work in the forums and best wishes on the new role.

Mand,
I think it has to be said that your help and intervention in quite a few different cases has really shaped the forum facing role of plusnet, and has set the expections of quite a few.
You never failed to meet those expectations, and even at times where I am sure you felt like ~~throtting/mutilating/battering~~ re-educating people (Staff and customers!) you still came through smiling with a result, making for some really happy customers.
We'll all miss you in the forums, but I know how much it means to you for this role change.
It's been emotional

@Gabe, did you break into our office to take that pic?
@pierre_pierre, I'll be around, you don't get rid of me that easily. I suspect tonight will involve beer and football rather than a computer though.

That looks like one I took in Networks a couple of years ago. Can't quite recall who it was though
