Today im sad

I just learned a sad news

A few months ago, one of my employees stormed out work and quit after she had an arguement with the boss. It was nothing bad, but it seems to her that day it was overwhelming. That was last november.... december comes, her best friend (who worked with us at the time) asked if we could forgive her and the way she acted ,the comments she said (she said go *F* yourself to the boss) and take her back, but her position had already by filled by a new employee, so we denied her request to have her back working with us.

She was always very anxious and barely could deal with any kind of emotions.. like one day, i just asked her to go through me first when she needed a day off as I make the schedule instead of going to other employees about it and she started crying... she had a lot if stress and pressure from home as well being an only child. She was studying to me a mechanic engineer and already had her job waiting for her.

I keep saying had, in the past because i learned that on may 21st, she took her life, she couldnt take the challenges life gave her nor could handle stress no more. I cant help but think that by refusing to take her back at work, I may have contributed to her stress and anxiety. And I feel bad and so sad for her family that loved her so much. She was always surrounded by so many people that loved her... my heart goes out to everyone that loved her. She was only 19yrs🥺

RIP

That is very sad. There is no way you could have predicted her response to your actions. Many parents put too much pressure on their children especially if they have only one.
You will never know what was the last thing that pushed her into that decision.

Please don't take the weight of this situation on your self. There are so many ways to look at this situation. It's a sad situation. You did all that you could, you have a responsibility to your business and co-workers more than owing anything to this girl. You did your job honorably which was the right thing to do in this situation

Omg that is awful! I am so sorry but know it was nothing you could have done. It seems that she was facing many challenges. May she rest and find peace once and for all. 🥺🌹

Although it’s hard I would try not to blame yourself. She said some things that I wouldn’t rehire her for and the position was already filled.

How sad. I'm sorry about your friend. It seemed that she had lots of problems. You were there for her. That's all you can do.
I understand how you feel... Try to don't blame yourself
May she rest in peace🦋

This is sad and tragic, but there isn’t much you could have done to bring her back after what she said to the boss and the fact that the position had already been filled.
Even if you tried hard yo get her back, the decision might have been overridden.
Even if you did manage to get her back on the payroll, there’s still a possibility that something else would have led her to take her own life.

There was no way you could have known what she was going to do.

It's understandable that you feel like that. 🥺
Though you can't give people jobs, because they otherwise may end it. That's just not an option.
And I'm very sure that she's had things happening in her life with which you had nothing to do that actually led her to this, not you not taking her back because the position was ahead filled.

This is really sad. What a waste

I'm sure that you know that you could not have done anything differently because you only had the information that you had at that time. Her problems were so much more than what ever happened at work.
Either way this is so sad. A mother raises a child and just when they barely become an adult they end their life?
She required more help than she got unfortunately and she choose a permanent solution to a temporary problem as they say
