My contract is coming to an end. GameHouse - a place where I find solace, love, friendships and family will no longer be my home. It is so hard to look at the people that I have grown to love and know that I will not be seeing them every day - and to know that no one will ever impact my life the way GameHouse has.
GH has been my rock, my foundation, my source of comfort in times of need and loneliness.
GH is my family.
I can not express nor show the all the ways that each of these people have impacted my life - but I'm going to give it a go:
Kraig: You have become one of my closest friends. You have been a shoulder for tears, a friend for advice and we have lots of fun together!! You mean a lot to me, and I love you very much.
Alex: We didn't get close until recently, but the last few months of time with you and getting to know you has been fantastic and I do not have words to describe how I feel about you. You are special and have helped me through some really tough times, you've been there for me in more ways than twenty. You are very important to me and I love you.
Ian: You gave me a home when I was homeless. You have been a friend, a roommate, a sober friend when I was too drunk to function, a source of good advice and long, good, intense, rich conversations. AND you teach me a lot, Love you!!!
Tyler: T-Bone!! You crack me up daily. You have taught me to embrace my heavy side, enjoy the rain, laugh at my stupidity and make up shit about inventions to piss off Ian. And have taught me about witty banter - like no one else has. I don't really love you because you're too thin - I may change my tune when you shoot a gun!
Nick: You're a pain in my ass, but I appreciate you!! You were my first friend and GH, and you have been there for me in many ways. I will miss learning all sorts of new fangled Jiu-Jitsu moves in case I'm attacked on the streets - and I may need to contact you to be reminded of how much of a heinous bitch I truely am. I don't think anyone else gets that like you do.
Deon: It's been refreshing to have another girl in QA. We didn't get to spend much time together, but I know you can keep these boys in line!! You rock!!
Craig: I will miss not having a crass man at my desk every day. You have made me embrace the feeling of fake molestation and I will miss you.
Chuck: You make me laugh. You are totally erratic and crazy, and I appreciate that. I will miss the daily, "So...Steph...." when questions of my ability are challenged. It's good stuff. You keep me on my toes.
Marcus: You're a rad boss. You've been a good source of advice and help. You've been there for me, and always have a good idea to pass on when I've needed it the most. Thank You.
I really wish I could list all 56 of my fellow employees on here - as they have all impacted my life in one way or another.
I have learned a lot about myself and about others through this time in my life. You have been with me through my toughest journey's and have always been there for me. You have never abandoned me nor made me feel like I am anything less than loved.
I love You all!!
~Stephanie

I'll miss you too, Estefania. But remember: Just because you aren't working at GH doesn't mean you're not sitll part of the family. We WILL see you and spend time with you, and you will be invited to GH functions.
And who knows? Maybe your next job will be even better than this one!
QAUpdate Already misses you Stephanie.
