just moments ago, I typed and printed dad's resignation letter.
and I felt this tug at my heartstrings.
you know, I always marvel at dad's job.
he gets to see the after hours of shopping malls and office towers.
all peaceful and quiet, how cool is that?
certainly, there's the irregular working hours.
different projects, different locations, different timings.
I remember there was a project when he leaves the house early morning and only comes home at midnight.
I remember last december was a busy period. we didn't attend any of the family gatherings because of his schedule.
when his brother from the states came to visit early this may and the extended family had a bbq, he was tied up at work.
I know my dad is really committed to his work.
if there's one thing you can't doubt about him, it's his commitment.
and I'm glad I share this trade with him. :)
(I'm getting emotional typing this.)
so for him to quit his job after seven years, something must have ticked him off.
when I asked mom, she just said 那个老板有问题.
probably a code word for it's complicated.
though I have a feeling dad's temper might played a part.
his temper can get pretty nasty sometimes.
I really don't know what job he is going to look for next.
he's not young anymore.
though I vaguely remember him applying for a taxi license after last recession.
nonetheless, I trust my dad and I think we are going to be safe.
I've just received my exam results yesterday.
hits and misses but all was good.
I'll work really hard dad, so you'll be able to 享清福.
