RANT::
so, my junior design, whom I went out on a limb to employ, above other more qualified and more creative applicants, handed in her notice last week. she is moving in with her boyf in Holland - who she'd only just met [online] when she came to interview - 5 months ago. She is marrying him in April, having only ever spent 2 weeks breathing the same air IRL, despite being in total contact (skype IM etc) for the last few months.
Today is her last day. and now I'm faced with the thought of not only my work, but sorting out the jobs she's leaving behind. Also, management has informed me that they do not wish to replace her.
yay /sarcasm
