Another one bites the dust

My Working in the recruiting industry you become accustomed to the high turnover of co-workers.  This is a love you when you’re hot and leave you when you’re not industry and as such when a financial quarter comes to an end you never know who you’re going to find isn’t there anymore.  Today for the first time in a long time I remembered to sign into our internal Microsoft Messenger service and noticed that one of the very few people I actually have on my list now has the infamous “D-” in front of their name, which stands for disabled and is the indicator that the person is no longer with the company.

I’ve worked with this particular lady on well over 100 orders in the past year alone.  We’ve battled through multiple internal and external problems to provide the client with the best possible service while adhereing to our own corporate requirements and requirement for profit.  She was one of the very few who took and valued my advice and as such there was never a problem with her candidates, billing or level of service to the client.  I valued our professional relationship and we had built a decent friendship.

I hope she has found herself a new job and has not been released but I don’t think I’ll ever get an answer to the question.
