A very valued member of staff gave me notice just over a week ago.
For family reasons she is moving & wants a job closer to home (her new home) so she found one & is starting there at the end of her notice period. BTW her own house isn't even on the market yet.
I was devastated and have been a bit quiet all week - not stroppy, not argumentative, not even passive agressive, but quiet (silently panicking about coping without her). I have also been poorly (ear infection, cystitus & run down) - Plus having lots of other stuff to deal with (family member dying, new site opening etc).
So I was asked today for a 'talk' tomorrow - so what do I say - I have already apologised for thinking about myself and how the business will manage rather than about how bad she feels about leaving. So what else can I do?
