Fast breaking news:
I have been sacked. Sort of.
My company has been doing poorly the last few months and took a hit last week. In response, they are trimming staff. Not a happy thing on anybody’s part. I am part of the trim which makes complete sense since it has been hard to find enough work to keep me busy 20 hours a week.
But they need my skills for about 8-10 hours a month. We are trying to work out a way for me to come in at the very beginning of the month to do the reports they need. I still need another job to support myself. If I end up working and can’t give these guys the time, I actually built the system such that I could do remotely and so I would be able to do the work during my off time. That would mean extra money which is good right now.
I am sad that this is happening. It isn’t anyone’s fault and they have glowing reports of my work so that is very good. I still need another job. But I can come and hang out here.
There is good in it but it still sucks rotten eggs. Welcome to change. Baaa
That is the suck.
Sorry you got sacked. Thinking positive thoughts for The Gina. Hope other, better, more fun, higher-paying, and more fullfilling work comes along.
I’m sorry to hear about this recent challenge. The market appears to be improved so hopedfully there is another opportunity out there to be had in short order.
I have heard rumors to that affect. Shall I unselect pause in sending you that updated resume for the Kasier bin?
It’s certainly worth a shot, though I do not personally know of a position here, but then again I’m in the wrong part of the organization. There is a rather large marketing and communications branch that might be more furtile ground. I could do some nosing around and see if I can find a specific position for you to apply for, contact person etc.
I was just doing a job search to check the water (something I do periodically, call me paranoid) and came across a fair number of listings.
That is quite unfortunate. I hope you are able to find something quickly, and possibly work out something with your current employers, because extra money is sometimes a good thing.
Sorry about the cutbacks, I hope you find something new and fun soon.
Hoping this is just a prelude to you finding the most kickass job evah!!
((hug))
Bah. Sorry to hear that.
Come swimming w/ me TH night. Gets you out of the house and gives me motivation to actually go to the gym.
PS: Can I impose upon you to arrive a tad early for dinner on Saturday (about 5-ish)to give me a hand getting the finishing touches finished?
Impose? You are the hostess with the mostest, I am glad to provide assistance to help you out. You are so nice to us in treating us to this fabo dinner. It would be my pleasure. I now have you booked at 5pm. And I might even follow through since you actually need me to do something.
Getting laid off sucks especially because it’s nobody’s fault.
*hugs* and good luck with the job search.
That sucks. Good luck.
Did you receive the envelope from BayCOn? That should help. I sent it a few days ago, before I saw this.
