My career is so weird.
I just got home from my manager's funeral, held at a funeral home owned by my employer. My entire team went with the director of our department.
Awkward, bittersweet, and fuck cancer.

In absolutely horrible news I learned this morning that Hany was killed in an air strike- he was driving people from the North to the South when it happened. This is one of the last messages he sent me 💔
He leaves behind 8 kids, he was only 48 and he was very kind.
