Dropping someone who did a lot for you - and you may not have realized it at the time but now you do - a note out of the blue is a wonderful thing to do. Especially if it is carefully written. Megabonus for paper note although in the career field you may not know where they are at, so email is best.

I've done it throughout my career for one manager, and few peers. It was wonderfully fun and much appreciated.

Great Ask HN question
