Pretty sad. It seems as if he was going to cry as this is all he has known since he was a kid.

I notice he was thinking of taking the projector home....hope he managed to do just that.

I can certainly understand how he must feel as you spend so much time with them...that's why I took "my baby" home with me [Cool]

when the place closed [Big Grin]

Thanks for that Adam. A moving little piece. As it was made in 2012 I wonder what Ridwann is doing now. Seems to me that every time technology advances a small number of new jobs are created and a much larger number are lost. Can't imagine many folk getting emotional over a digital projector!!

Great little piece Adam. I wonder how many people can relate to that. I guess there's no stopping technology advances, but I suppose there is always a trail of sadness in its wake.
