Raccoon met for the last time with one of his employees. The employee was leaving the company after many years and had asked for the meeting to tell his boss thank you for all the years of leadership and training. Raccoon sat and listened as the young employee told him about his new job and how he would always be up to help out Raccoon if there was ever a need. After the meeting Raccoon went into his office and smiled happily. It was the life changing relationships like this that made being a leader the best job in the world.
