The cost of it all.

I got this email from a relatively new employee this evening;

I regret to inform you but I will not be returning to New Orleans. This weekend my husband and I made the decision to remain in Texas. We placed a down payment on a new house and will return long enough to make arrangements with our home. We have wanted to return to Texas since Katrina and this time we decided to make the move.

I am sorry for the inconvenience and without notice, but I have to do this for my family. Thank you for the opportunity it has been a learning experience. Again accept my apology.

I wonder if there is any hope for New Orleans.
