so long tl kazel :(
** I composed this on my phone while on my way home inside a jeepney, teary eyed and was sniffling the whole time… Wajajaja! Other passengers were like giving me a questioning look but I did not care at all. **
** As I was blogging this, all the effing sad music were playing on the background. Suddenly, Chris Brown was singing to me “Say Goodbye”, Leona Lewis - “Yesterday”, Jennifer Hudson “Leaving Tonight”, and Ne-Yo sang “Waiting”. What the effing heck… Bull crap… Poofttffff naman!!! I’m crying! Cuz I’m gonna miss her.”
I was staring at my pc monitor, wondering what’s to come. I saw it all coming but I was never prepared. My seatmate, Allain, told me during the first break that OM wanted to speak to TL but she pleaded to do it later for she might not be able to work sanely for the rest of the shift. We assumed she will be leaving Walmart. I was teary eyed and I tried my bestest to not cry. Allain and Drew might ask me questions about their customers’ concern and I never wanted them to see me crying. Then towards the end of the shift she posted to quick com (QC) that we will have a meeting. Allain gave me a meaningful look. He’s like saying “I told yah so!” I knew it. I replied to her message, “OK…. Hmmmmmmn :$
I sense something” But to lighten up the mood, I said I see dead people, and she just posted a laughing icon. I posted a laughing icon too. She didn’t comment back.
We were asked to enter the huddle room. I was like the 2nd to the last person to enter, because I needed to get a chair, when I came back in, OM was there and STL too. That was kinda weird and sorta confirmed what we were anticipating. That was it, OM announced that TL Kazel will be leaving Walmart and will transfer to CSG. Her last day is today. Wow! Talk about surprises and nice ways of saying goodbye.
I was left speechless and my face was void of any emotions. I didn’t say anything during the meeting. Allain who was at my back was twisting my chair… Sorta confirming me that this is it.
After the meeting I rushed towards Bajoy, my wavemate, my ex teammate, and TL’s ex agent. She gave me that sad look. I knew she was sad about it too. I told her to drop by her station before she leaves and I will be waiting for her. There was Miles (also an ex teammate) too, so I told her to just drop by TL’s station before she leaves.
I clocked out from worked and gave my daily stats to TL and gave her a bear hug and told her I’m gonna miss her. Then Bajoy came in and we talked about the news, then Drew, She and Allain (teammates)were there too and we just talked. Miles and Jazz (ex teammates) passed by the area and we called their attention. It was like an impromptu buhbye moment. No one seemed to know how to express their sadness (if they felt the same way as I did, but I know they did). I texted Doe and Bebe (teammates) because they were on leave and were unaware of the news. Doe texted back “WTF! WTF! What the hell! Nooooooooo!” I let TL read it and she was laughing at his reaction. I can’t describe how I was feeling at the time. It was mixed of emotions for me. I was sad she’s leaving, happy that she’ll leave our boring account, and I know that that how life is, but you know that point when you reach that maximum level of being numb for being overwhelmed. I kissed her goodbye and we guys left. I was just sad while I was leaving the building, on the way to Greenbelt I was texting all my wavemates / exteammates / TL’s ex agents. Everyone was sad about it. Des replied “Powtek!” Ice, “Huh? Bakit? Pano na?” Popo, Jael and Apol, “That’s sad!” I told yah we share the same feelings.
There’s nothing wrong with her leaving. I know it’s for her own good, it’s for her development, it’s for her career growth. I know, I know. I was even anticipating it because there were so many signs she was the one going. So what’s the fuzz all about? Well, for one, that’s TL Kazel, that’s not some other TL who is not just Kazel. Her original team, the Begotten, was so tight (like virgins). We were one solid team for more than a year. It was one heck of a year, it was full of fun. The QC had been a silent witness of our good times. We used to talk everything fun and we laughed like there’s no tomorrow.
Who’s not gonna miss her? She’s one heck of a TL. You know that she’s got a head full of sense. Very understanding, very cool, very encouraging, she’s just the TL that everone loved. She’s more of a friend / a TL… half half… I guess she’s like that to everyone. A leader with a heart! And a heart with a head! (Huh???)
She’ll just be at the 6th floor of the same building and and chances are we still will see her if she comes early to work or we stay at the office late. But it’s different when the person is no longer there. It’s nothing like before, how things used to be. I’ll miss the chicka, the casual stuff we used to share. Well, well, that’s life! I knew it’s gonna happen but I didn’t expect it to be this soon. I wasn’t prepared for this. It was indeed so sudden and I’m saddened!
Anyhow the reshuffling on teams, Ice, Dess, Bajoy and all the waves 9 and 10 (except Allain) moving to other teams sort of eased the situation. I dunno how to handle it if the team was still the team the Begotten way.
But that’s how things are supposes to be. Everything is destiny! But I couldn’t help it. It is like when Steph and Jolou left for San Francisco, I have this pain in my heart, the usual pain I feel whenever a dear friend leaves. You know that thought of not seeing them on a regular basis and stuff. We didn’t even have a sorta farewell episode. But I know that she knows just how much everyone (especially the Begottens) loves her.
So Good Bye TL KAZEL. Thanks for everything! For being the best TL that you are! Walmart will sure never be the same without you. Our days will be more boring… Muah, I know you know I heart you much. God Bless
