though jj retracted his resignation, he will be moving to another department by monday. 

and in a month or two, our team will be reduced to just three members. new people will replace the posts of those who will eventually leave the company but it'll never be the same. they have their own reasons for wanting such a major change in their lives. i won't press them for reasons. bidding them good luck and praying for their happiness are what i can give them.   so long, then.
