Yesterday I received a text from a colleague from another department, a good friend, he had joined the bank almost the same time as me. That's probably why there's sort of a kinship between us. He gave it to me straight, he is leaving. I felt the base of my stomach drop out, just for a second, like it does on a roller-coaster, when you're at the top & about to tip over & it's too late to change your mind & go back.
I cant believe it. He's the second person I'm close to, who's leaving! My favorite lunch partner left beginning of this month. Feeling a little depressed right now!
