I will be moving to new role next month with different organization. I have been with current employer for 6.5 years and built around 30 solutions in that time span. Now that I am leaving I need to handover all those solutions to external company. They are not filling the role for now but outsourcing the work. I have already setup all the documentations I have in a nice folder structure by application. Made sure all the source code is there in version control server. I will be having one on one meeting with company this Friday.
Any tips for smooth handover ?

Run away as fast as you can.

You need to have several KT sessions to help the team transition information.
Meet the outsourcing team and have at least 2 hour sessions per day (maybe for a week) to do a complete transition.

Don't give them any contact details. Don't say they can contact you if they need something. And don't tell them that they not delete that one line of code which reverse the direction of Earth's rotation, unleashes lizard people and confirms illuminati.

Would an elephant skin doctor be a pachydermatologist?

I believe one would have to be pretty thick-skinned to become one of those.

No! An elephant skin-doctor is Dr Big!

Don't go have a cow, but judging by the previous responses, I herd it would be best to trunk-ate this thread.

...falls on April Fools Day this year. I'm going to tell my kids I've hidden chocolate eggs all round the house but really there will be nothing.

That's nothing - my eldest has birthday on the 1st of April - she will regret it for the coming 11 years (then it happens again)
(we celebrate birthday according to Hebrew calendar, so it moves around the Gregorian year, but this year we are lucky)

You're either going to be a bastard of a father or a tiresome old fool, depending on the age of your kids.

When I was in college, a friend of mine hid Jelly Beans all over his mother's house for Easter; he has 4 younger siblings.
The following year, he went to get a vitamin C pill from his mother's cupboard and found an orange Jelly Bean he had put in there the previous year.
Kinda funny.
