Yesterday my co-worker, team mate and friend processed her final payroll with me. After much consideration, she decided to take a new position at a different company. Although I applaud her enthusiasm for new opportunities, I neglected to realize just how much I'd miss her.
I gave her a hug and one last goodbye last night. Today, it hit me. When I got to work this morning, her desk was empty and all her files were on mine. Unexpectedly, I started to cry.
She was an all around great person. Someone to laugh with, vent to and I just enjoyed working with her.
Not much has been said in regards to picking up her responsibilities, but I'm sure they will fall my way. I was getting a little bored with my current tasks, so I welcome the challenges. I will also welcome the increased income that will need to accompany this.
But I miss my friend. It's just not the same without her.
Best of luck, Kaitlyn! I'm glad we got to share some time together.
