Well yeah that's what my mum's been saying to him, think of it as a good thing, you're losing someone who was never that great in the first place, it'll be better off without him once the initial issues are out of the way. I think they're trying to get my younger brother to go in and work there but he's dead against it because he hates the atmosphere in the office
my dad likes to work in silence so there's never any chat in the office or anything, my brother refers to it as "the morgue"... LOL
