Say you’re an Assurance Senior 3 and want to transfer soon as you hit Manager back to your hometown office. Should you secure the manager promotion at your current office first or go ahead and initiate the transfer at S3? I’m scared that they won’t accept me over their current S3s and so I think the safer bet is to make manager first then transfer. Deloitte EY PwC
Also, how desperate are firms for Managers these days? I know seniors and staff are in demand but I rarely hear about Managers.

Yes, there are people I mourn leaving. I keep in touch with them of course but now every day like we used to. It’s totally normal to feel this way. I’m glad you’re making good connections with people. What else is all this for, it can’t be all in the name of client service.

Well, that’s why I asked her if she was sure she had no feelings for him. She said she didn’t so I took it for the face value. In my experience, when you have to question yourself long and hard (and ask this on a forum) if it’s ok to stay in touch with a married, male coworker then there is usually something else brewing in the background. However, we can only go off the bits and pieces of information provided here and try not to speculate.

You sure you don’t have feelings for him?
I've 100% felt devastated when a work colleague/friend moves on. Doesn't matter the gender. Sometimes some ppl get you..and feeling heard and having someone to bounce things off of who will not only understand your perspective, but provide you with insight to help you grow and improve...well that kind of informal mentorship is hella invaluable and also...kind of rare.
It's okay to grieve ppl leaving without having to make it about something more.
I feel like one of the outcomes of hyper masculinity on our society is that we're unable to believe in the possibility of connecting with men in any other way other than romantic or sexual.
It's possible to grow attached to your work colleagues in a way that makes you sad when they leave without it being nefarious or reductive. Just saying...

Now every married accounting guy with children that just put in his notice is wondering if one of his female colleagues is in love with him lol
She could just rub it out.
I felt this way before. I had an awesome mentor as an A1 and he quit recently so that hit pretty hard. Totally normal.
I feel you

No. Because the few people I was really close to I kept in touch with after they or I left
I am a female and I cried when my female manager left.. no only because she was a strong advocate for me, but also because she left during busy season and I was freaking out…I became the only recurring person left on that team that year. I think this feeling can happen no matter what gender your coworker is.
Yes. Even though I still keep in touch now, I cried at the time thinking things wouldn’t be the same and nobody would be there to protect me anymore
Exactly same
100% for sure. I've been in the game over 15 years. Maybe I'm a sensitive soul, but I cried when each of my original work best friends left (in my first few years...the ones I still am friends with 10 years later). I've cried as a manager when staff and seniors left who I just genuinely enjoyed working with. And I cried when when my long-term boss and mentor left. When you care about what you do and you care about the people around you, I think its perfectly normal to really feel your feelings when things change.
Oh ya there are a few people at my firm that I know for sure when they leave I will cry. And Ive already cried a few times this year, I mean I know I can still talk to them even if they are not at pwc but somehow I feel like it won’t be the same anymore.
Just ask him out. Work is work… if you feel betrayed you viewed him as more than a colleague. Go get it!
Oh - don’t be a home wrecker. You just had the hots for someone who isn’t on the market. Not a big deal.
I always take it hard, but there have been three in my career that really hurt.
I’ve been really sad over a colleague leaving and it was strictly professional. No feelings on my end.
Where is he going? Can you follow him there?

Probably to the bedroom with his wife
