Not My Ideal Celebration...

Monday, May 22, 2006

So yeah, 10,000 finally rolled around! Seems like the venerable Porq was Mr. 10k so congrats to you Porq!

I was thinking a big balloons and confetti party and all that jazz in honor of the big rollover to five digits but instead I got:

"As of right now you employment as been terminated."

Idiot Boss finally won. Hard as I may have tried to work with him, it all came crashing down.

Unfortunately since I forgot to set my alarm the night before, it gave him the perfect opportunity to screw me over. Never mind that the reason I was on final notice was quite possibly illegal, I became unemployed at almost exactly the same time Porq was writing his comment.

So that's why there's been another unfortunate long break in my posting. I am furiously scouring the lands for a new employment opportunity. If any of you have connections in the Medical Device industry, let me know. I'll make someone a great employee.

Sounds like I have two interviews set up for tomorrow. So I'm off to a pretty decent start after taking the advice from friends and now ex-coworkers. I took a few days off to relax and de-stress over the whole thing. Went up north to visit D and did my best to have fun and get my mind off of things.

Anyway, now it's time to start fresh, get a new job, maybe a new girl, and I should be getting into classes this fall to finish my damn degree. A new dawn is truly rising here in slackerland and you all get to come along for the ride ;O)

I'll keep up updated on the interviews and hopefully some dates and look for the new deputies to be posted soon. If you want to be a deputy and haven't already left a comment explaining why, you should!! :O)

Ok back to job hunting, later all!

You poor thing!
How stitched up can you get?

I really do feel for you, matey.

Hopefully this will give you some time to reassess where you're headed in life and where you want to go.

Good luck!

Wow, that really sucks, but I guess it's for the best that you're not there anymore. I hope you find something, and fast.

Ok, reading through, catching up ... I went through the same thing a few months ago. Not fun, but in the end, so completely worth it. Best thing that ever happened to me was getting fired and I rolled my eyes at EVERYONE who told me that ... until it turned out to be true. I'll be crossing my fingers for you!!!
