Re: Eric's computer



Partner,
If you mean Eric's desktop (we didn't get him a laptop), I'd prefer to leave that in the office linked to the server for his successor in the office.  I'll double check though.  We did buy a laptop for Kenny, so you can have that one.  It's pretty nice.  Your call.  Makes much more sense to me that you simply buy what you want locally.  We're eventually going to need the units we have.  Marcy's going to be helping Bethany during the transition and will need a computer hooked to the server, and Kenny will be working through the end of the month. 
As I mentioned, Marcy and I are attending the wedding of her partner's son in Dana Point on Sat.  Our trip has us departing on Fri afternoon from DC and returning Mon evening.  So I won't be here for you on Monday.  Back in the office on Tues.  
In that regard, if one of us is there on Mon, that is when Kenny will need to be formally notified that his last day will be 2 Sep (3 more full weeks of work).  I wasn't going to be able to tell him Monday because of our trip.  My plan was to do it Tues morning, because I think he's in NC and won't be back until Sun.  But the sooner the better, so it makes sense that you sit him down and tell him.  It was never my plan to dump this on you, but since I work with him every day, it would help me a great deal if you were the one to tell him.  I have no doubt that he'd find out just based on the nature of Eric's preparations on Monday because Eric depends on Nick's recollection of case status to keep him on track.  I wouldn't be there to have let him know first thing in the morning (which is the recommended day of the week to lay someone off).  Eric assured me Tues that he had not said anything to Kenny about his plans to leave.  So this will be out of the blue for him.  Nevertheless, he needs to hear it from one of us and he'll need to know in order to help with the transition of cases during your meeting with Eric.  Your plans to arrive on Monday, therefore, solves the problem of him working all day on Monday being kept in the dark and everyone tip-toeing around him until I get back on Tues morning.  Perfect.  Thanks for moving up the schedule.  It means a great deal to me and cures a problem that Eric created by dropping that on us on Tues, with our travel plans having already been made.

Hey Partner,
Do you have a plan for Eric's computer? If not, I'd like to get it. Also I'm going to try and come on Monday of next week. See if Eric is available to have that meeting rather than wait another week.
