this, that, and the other thing

Work, as usual, has me really stressed out. Earlier this month, one of my favorite co-workers quit. She had graduated from a PhD program and had been job hunting. It took her several months to find a job and when she finally landed one she was able to give us over a month's notice. It was bittersweet because she was great to work with, but it was for the best.
Then early this week, one of the other girls I love to work with put in her two weeks notice. I was super shocked and she said herself that it wasn't really thought out, she just decided it was time to move on.
THEN after my two days off, I come back into work and learn that another one of the girls I work with is stepping down and moving to a completely different department. Her mother had a heart attack and she had to change her hours so she could be a caretaker during the day.
Now I'm freaking out because we are already hiring over 40 cashiers to gear up for the Holidays--that was all of our worries that we won't have enough staff and we'd constantly be dealing with new cashier questions. Plus we are going to be training 3 new Customer Service Managers as well! What also sucks is one of the girls was strictly a closer and the other two closed a couple times a week. Now there are only three of us who are able to close. This Christmas is going to be horrible. I've been a Customer Service Manager for over six months now and there are still many things I don't know.
It's going to be interesting. I really need to put in for vacation in January when all the craziness is over!
