Retirement of a boss

One of the bosses is leaving after close to 40 years on the job. He represents another era in our agencies past. He was promoted up the ranks, but his big break came when his father in law lobbied for him to get a position in management. He was less educated then those he supervised and seldom had vision. 

His quirks have damaged my career. Yet in the end he did something that showed class. He apologized for some of his actions and inaction. It showed class and believe it or not it means plenty. I will attend his retirement party and wish him well.

Good for you, Beak, for attending and HIM for apologizing...you're getting an awful lot of good encouragement and expressions of regret and you deserve them.
