if she’s back I’ll try to keep her…she just again managed very well the situation with the delayed opening of the Andaz Doha.

Yes, I double checked with her earlier today, and she is not moving away. She has no influence in the mails being sent out, but did say, should I receive such a mail, I could contact her and she would request to keep me.
So... great it worked for you
regarding OOO in January - she just mentioned "end of January". I presume a week or 2 only.
