Leaving speech

After three years and six months at Lincoln University I am now officially unemployed and heading away on a gap year for grown ups with my family. I started at Lincoln University in the position of Online Services Manager in October 2009. In April 2012 I became the Applications group manager as well as the online services manager. A friend in the US said “a Mexican promotion – two jobs, one salary”, which it was but it was more than that as well. I became responsible for a team of six people who helped me and whom I hope I helped. It is them and the other people I worked with at Lincoln University that I really tried to express my thanks to in my leaving speech. I’m blogging my speech because my dad asked for a copy and several people were unable to attend. It starts using the Maori language and ends using the Tibetan language. ---------------- Te whare tipuna e tu nei Te University e takoto nei Tena korua Nga hau e wha Nga iwi e tau nei Tena koutou katoa Thank you
