The final day I had packed all my stuff and my boss at the time came to say goodbye before I left. He handed me a folded paper. I unfolded it and it was Hamsters registration papers. He said, “Well, I been thinking and I just don’t see how you could leave here without that horse. He’s yours and if things don’t work out where you are going you are welcome back right here.”I learned right then that just because you make an employer change that don’t mean you’ve made an enemy. That boss passed away in 2020. He was a hard man but fair. His boys now run the ranch and it’s at their ranch horse sale that Hamster is consigned. If I could afford it I’d donate the proceeds to some sort of cancer research which is what suddenly and swiftly took that man in his 60’s with so much left to do.</blockquote>
