Breaking out is hard to do...

Someone in my department let me know she's going to quit tomorrow. She was headed back to grad school in the fall, and decided she was willing to leave early.

It'll be tough, at least in the short term, to find someone to fill her shoes.

Okay, she's coming in Monday for her exit interview. Interesting to see if her departure will affect the way our department works.
