Hi Taraz

You know many years ago I worked myself into a standstill because I took on so many responsibilities that I actually didn't have a life outside of work. Everything revolved around it and it didn't serve me that well to be honest - I got burned out which wasn't helpful to my work or to me personally. 

I think there just has to be a balance but it sounds like you're going to have to broaden your shoulders even more to cover for this colleague leaving. I personally hate it when companies chuck the work onto the next person, it is just not right to do and a company I worked for previously found a replacement for me when I had decided to leave and they hired the person 2 weeks earlier than my leaving date so that they could have 2 weeks with me to get properly trained. That kind of transition seems far better and then the person leaving also knows that they've done all they can to ensure that the next one has the right tools in their toolbox. 

I hope they find a replacement soon so that you aren't stretched to the max. 
👍  ,

I work a lot, but most of my work has a pretty specific purpose, so burnout is unlikely. I have been tested and so far, it is okay :)

In this line of work, it is impossible to get someone in and have them producing anything meaningful in the first two months or so, unless they are coming from a similar role from already within the company. The training period to get to about 80% is about 6 months :D  Essentially, I will take the critical tasks from the person leaving and trim my own down to accommodate - I won't be going crazy adding more. 

Some companies don't handle these transitions well, but I think this company does a pretty good job overall.

It sounds like this isn't your first rodeo in this kind of scenario. I am glad that you have a plan on  how you will tackle it. 

Change is always a bit of upsetting the apple cart but hopefully the person they get in will be able to get on top of the post within that time limit or I think you're going to tire of handling two position's responsibilities.
