Saying Goodbye is so hard...but so fun!

It doesn't happen often, but every now and then, one of the team decides to move on. Just like our Christmas parties, the Going Away Parties have become something to talk about. We always send our own off in High Style. First was Rick..."When I said I'd do anything to help, I didn't realize you wanted me to do this!!"
"Only you could pull this off Dwight."

"I don't get out much... let me have a drink of yours, Shari."

Some of the Gang

The Rest of the Gang
"Brace yourself, Rick... I have a plan!"

At least the plan includes gifts... look, it's your invite to all future
Christmas Parties with the I-Team.

Suntan lotion...huh?

Oh, I get it... so I don't get sunburned with my new office window!

Now what could this possibly be?

Just a few staples...

Now this... this is your invite to all future Tech Weeks.

(OMG! I think I'm afraid of what she's going to pull out of that bag next.)

Seriously... what are they going to give him next?

ACK!! It's Merlin!

"Look Sue...I can beat it if I stick my tongue out just so..."

Oh, The Places You Will Go...

And a GPS to get you there.

We'll miss you Rick!!

Before Rick left, Shari decided she was leaving, too. By the time her notice was up one month later, we were all looking for a little stress relief. This party was too fun to miss!!

So tell me again why Dwight couldn't make my party?

Cheers Everyone!!

Ok...she'll have another, and get one for her, too.

As a matter of fact, bring us all another round!Cheers everyone... oh, I already said that didn't I?

Yes Karen, I'll miss you too.

What have they put in these glasses??

Speaking of glasses...

Isn't it amazing what people will do when they've been drinking?

I haven't been drinking, but I'm sure having fun!

Look Shari! I've got a grill...

Me too, Rick!!

A little YMCA anyone? Go Shari!

The Hard Rock was so gracious to host our rowdy bunch! But when we finished here, we weren't quite ready to call it a night, so we wandered over to Wanna B's for a little karaoke. (Yes, we also wound up at the Cadillac Ranch, but I can't show those pictures here.)

Now what are you up too?

Look Shari, Rick's trying to hook you up!

A little last minute advice...

Too bad it wasn't "Don't Do It!!"

Here's the gang... plus more than a little alcohol!

When Shari told us she did karaoke, we knew just where we would plan her party.

What we didn't know is that she really can sing!!

Listen for yourself...

"To all my friends at 'The Mother Ship'... "

Shari's support...

...and cheering section!

Way to go Shari! No matter where you work, you'll always have a special place on the I-Team!!
