Not My Ideal Celebration...
Monday, May 22, 2006So 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!!!
