"Miss POI"

 
Tue, 08/30/2011 - 6:58pm

My time here as your fearless leader is at an end. I have taken a job with another company as a help desk agent. I am very excited about this new career and am looking forward to continuing my work in the field of customer service and technical support.

I will not be gone; I will still be checking in and being a part of the family that we have all become. I love you guys and I will continue to support this community.

Please be good to each other and the staff here at POI-Factory. Together we have all built something that we can be very proud of.

I look forward to watching this community grow and prosper, you guys and gals are truly incredible people that have huge hearts and a passion for helping your fellow GPS geeks out there.

I wish you all the best,

Maryann

Mixed Emotions

While I certainly wish you great success in your new job, part of me wants to say don't go. You shaped this community into what it is today. I participate in several forums and the POI-Factory has, by far, the most helpful, friendly group of members of any of them, all thanks to you. You keep us in line. wink

Wishing you great success & happiness exclaim grin

To Ms POI

An old Irish Blessing

May the road rise to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face, the rains fall soft upon the fields.
And, Until we meet again, May God hold you in the palm of his hand

Thank You and Good Luck !

All is true except the "miss working with her" part.
Did I miss something here? All this means for you is you have to work harder here. The other half won't be around to help, and you get to cook dinner.laugh out loud

Well actually, the part you questioned is true too; we separated earlier this year, so I will miss working with her.

But anyway, let's keep this thread focused on MaryAnn's many contributions to the site. She deserves the recognition and thanks.

Mixed emotions here too

Wow!

We just got power and cable back and I was elated (Thanks Eileen).

The first place I go is here and the "Miss POI" header jumps out at me and I am bummed out as I read your post. You have always tried to be fair to all and you have kept all of us loco GPS enthusiasists under control. You have been strict when there was no other choice.

We will miss you, but I hope the new job works out well.

None of us like change, but there comes a time when we must embrace it; Thank you for the part you played in making this a great forum, and I know your desire is that it becomes even greater with new leadership.
You will definately be missed, but I applaud you for knowing when it was time to seek out new beginnings.
