Hi @CasualAthelpine 😊
Calatheas really are the dramaqueens of plants..
Have you had her for long? Done a recent repot? Did you turn down/up the heat in the room when you were gone?
It looks like a workplace? So thinking they might turn the temperature down over the weekends? These are really dramatic and don't like change. They don't really like anything 😅 No tap-water, not too wet, not too dry, no desturbing the roots, no change in environment, no sun, but not too dark, humidity in the air, but not too humid (and no spraying/misting), little fertilizer but not nothing, etc🙈
Maybe you can tell us a little more about your care-routine and the environment?
For now try to give her a stable environment, and be careful with the water as she is obviously stressed and will develop root-rot if she stays too wet now (just small sips untill she shows sign of recovering).

Ok so sounds like I have made her extremely unhappy. I have recently adopted her and re-potted her. She is at office, and up until the weekend she seemed happy. But the temps did drop here dramatically and my office was only about 52° when I got here this morning.
