I am so annoyed. We are down four people at work right now. My one friend just retired, one girl has the flu and is out til Monday, one has unknown medical issues and is out until August. Then there's the forth one. She came in two days ago and started crying at her desk. I thought someone had died. She ends up going home and calls the boss later on saying the doctor put her out for a week because of stress. I didn't bother asking why. No personal issue needs a week. Then she bops in the office yesterday to drop off the note and you'd swear she just got laid. She was happy. She was laughing. She was literally hopping up and down in her cubicle laughing. I wanted to rip her fucking head off. She comes over as I am talking to the temp agency saying, "We need anyone who can imput data at this point. We're hurting." She smiles, hands me the note and goes back to talk. Considering we are so behind there's no time for chit chat. I walked over, pissed off and asked if everyone was okay with the backlog. One coworker followed me back to see if I was okay. Then she says, "So did she give notice?" WTF!?! Apparently she's leaving the state on July 1st. No notice, either. So she's going to get ready to move, come back and maybe give a weeks notice. I was beyond livid. You just don't do that shit. My boss hired her, gave her a raise and we were all really good to her. I don't understand where people figure they can say 'Fuck it, I'm not transferring' and just screw their coworkers by not giving notice. At least we could start the interview process sooner. My boss says to let it go. What goes around comes around. Usually that's my line. This time I said, "Yeah? I hope what comes around is a swift kick in the ass."
