I asked a shop employee at the supermarket where the cocoa powder was. She laughed, and led me to the shelf.
There were none left. Big gap.
She grabbed a foot stool, climbed up on it and started reaching round the back of the next product.
That's very sweet, really trying for me.
She wasn't even looking, like she knew there was one there. Smile on her face.
There was.
She handed it to me.
"Was that for you?"
Big smile. "Yes, but don't worry, they will re-stock, I'll get one later."
So sweet. I thanked her profusely.
Life is made of magical interactions like this. Connections. Short overlaps into other people’s lives.
After more than 11 years, today is my last day at Apple.
It’s been a privilege to be able to say I’ve worked my dream job, helping create SwiftUI and getting to support an incredible team of engineers and friends.
I’m excited for what’s next for me (stay tuned!), but today I’m focused on how deeply grateful I am to everyone at Apple that I’ve worked with and learned from over the years. It’s a truly amazing place full of astoundingly talented but also genuinely wonderful people.
