“My New Career

All,
 
Although I love working with you all and will miss you tremendously, I have decided to take on a new career as a roller coaster tester.  After my experience at Six Flags last week I could no longer deny my life’s ambition; it is my true love in life.  The ups and downs, twists and turns; it gives me such a high!  I did not come to this decision easily, but it is the right move.  I hope you all will understand.
