As many of you have read my office is closing tomorrow.
Yesterday and so far today I have receiving telephone calls from our dealer's (I work for Ford Credit) thanking me for assisting them thoughout the years, good luck in the future.
I have never ever been able to handle complements well and really don't know what to say other than Thanks. I actually get a bit misty eyed at these calls which then makes me unable to talk!!

Any words of wisdom??

Aww... It is hard to leave eventhough I know you are excited about devoting time to your new business. Just hold back the tears the best you can,tell them you really appreciate them calling to wish you luck and that you have enjoyed working with them, too

Really Gail, great advice there. Sometimes it can be hard...isn't it always the most giving and selfless of folks that seem to be unable to take compliments??? (you).

Maybe you could buy some cards and just send them to those who callled with a 'thanks for your best wishes' note?
