Fickle
So...
Today was another day of change.
I've gotten home around 12:30am after having sat at work chatting with some of the Japanese staff. They would be working on well past when I left.
Over the past month we've had many staff leave; Hayato last week, and then Mai, little Mai and Shouko within the last 3 or so weeks. Yukari was also transferred elsewhere, but hasn't actually left Nova.
Miyuki was finishing up today, who I've known since my first day of work here. :(
Then there's Rumi.
She's been my manager since January-ish. She's been the best you could have hoped for in all ways. It's a sad day... BUT, life goes on and we'll be in touch.
She's kept it quiet, and I know there'll be more than a few surprised people tomorrow (of the teachers that are left that actually know her and haven't just last week transferred to us from all the branches that closed).
There'll be a bye-bye party on the 20th and I'll get and take as many shots as I can handle.
So the general vibe doesn't really need to be explained. The only fulltime staff left has been with us for about 2-3 weeks and so we've had people from head office over to help out.
The staff payday was the 27th of September. They've still not been paid after more than two weeks. This is the 2nd month in a row for them to have it 'late'.
My payday is on Monday coming; the 15th. That single day will be the day that will break the company when they can't pay their teachers on time. If that is the day Nova dies, and it doesn't drag on longer, then the government will give a guaranteed minimum of 80% of what is owed, even if it takes a very long time to get it.
I'll then have basically the last 3 months of this year to find some work for and then I'll be fine for Jan/Feb when I'd intended to travel and not work.
I honestly don't think I'll have too much trouble finding work as I've got feelers out and contacts already. In addition, there'll still be thousands of Nova students looking for study...
I never made a mistake at all with the choice to do Nova. I've had a perfect, almost surreal, life here, but that doesn't change how depressing it is knowing that when I turn up to work tomorrow that there'll be none of 'my staff' anymore.
寂しい。。。

寂しいねぇ。
My branch seems to be changed another
one. Unknown faces are there. Almost of staffs I know had gone.
There are so many boxes still packed in the office.
Should I use all of my points?
Maybe it's too late:(
Regarding Rumi, her eyes used to be
sparkling. But when I talked to her
at the last day of her, her eyes lost shining.
I felt so sad.
She might have completely burnt out.
Life goes on, yeah I know.
