Re: Handing off my duties



Thanks Tiago! I still have a high opinion of Google as an employer and a as company, and I'm looking forward to seeing what happens with Google Cloud Platform over the upcoming years. Definitely not a goodbye.

Jimmy,

Reading your message, my first though was something like "wow, that
was unexpected!". Anyway, I guess this isn't a goodbye and we'll
continue to see your contributions as a DD, even if not GCE-related.

My best wishes for you. I'm sure you'll do an excellent job wherever you work.

Best regards,
Tiago.
