I am heartbroken. I am devastated at an event I knew would happen. I feel like crying because I'm loosing someone who I never realized is desperately important to me. Her name is Beth. And she is leaving my work. She is a wonderful lady I work with at the School of Education. We spoke of her applying to another job about a month ago. I knew she would get it; I mean she comes highly recommended. But I never thought she would be leaving in less then a week. I'm so sad because I love her. I think she is one of the coolest ladies I've ever met. I have no desire to work at my job anymore. I have no good reason to go to a place I don't enjoy working for anymore. This past semester the office has really took a turn for the worse. And now that Beth is leaving, I don't want to work there. I don't want to work with people that drove her away. And don't get me wrong. I'm so happy for her. I encouraged her so much and she confided in me. I think it is a blessing for her to move on to a place where she will be appreciated and not treated like the way she is. I have never thought or wanted to quit a job cold turkey but now I want to. Now all I want to do is leave also because I have no good reason to work there. I'm sorry. I just found this news out (from my email). I'm very sad. I don't know what to do. I don't want to be rash and quit. That's not my personality. But I also don't want to be in that place. I haven't wanted to since the last couple months. But what kept me happy was Beth and I have only one more day to work with her.

I'm heartbroken.
