Winds of change

Thursday I was feeling better and had been on antibiotics for a couple of days (it was Strep) and, after discussion with my supervisor, went in to the office. About an hour after I got there Jenn called a team meeting and we all got quite a shock; she is resigning effective at the end of the month to begin her own consulting business. All of us were quite shocked . . . and worried. I expected her to go after a few years but not this soon. Jenn has been a great boss. We've had differing opinions, yes, but she really is a great boss. All of my advancement I credit to her. I started as an Administrative Specialist and slowly worked up but none of it would've been possible without Jenn. When Danielle was born and I decided to stay at home I was terrified to turn in my resignation but Jenn was understanding. A year and a half later when Trey lost his job and I emailed her and a few coworkers, Jenn gave me a chance to come back. There have also been a few things that I know she has argued on my behalf and without her in my court, I would've been running in place. As well as a lot of other females at our place. Jenn has given consulting options to our organization for up to one year; I hope that she is taken up on that offer...

Change is always hard to take isn't it? Glad to hear you are feeling better.
