Thrursday - End of the road

Today on my drive into work, I wasn't even thinking that I would be layed off today.

Boy, I'm going to need a new opening line...

Sorry to hear that, lady. :|

Wha?!

I'm so sorry. Was there any warning or any indication that anyone at your job would be laid off?

I got downsized. I've been expecting it any day for about 4 years now, but you get so used to seeing that ax up there you forget that eventually, it's going to come down on your neck. (*head rolls across room and stops face down next to wall*)

Wow, I am sorry to hear that.
I hope a new job pops up soon for you.

Oh crap! What happened?

[identity profile] neanahe.livejournal.com 2007-02-15 08:37 pm (UTC)(link)
It has nothing to do with me. They are closing the Houston office.

Whoa! What?
What was their reasoning behind that decision?!

[identity profile] neanahe.livejournal.com 2007-02-16 04:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Less employees = cost cutting = company stops loosing so much money. I've known this was coming for a long time; I shouldn't be so surprised. I guess I was hoping for later rather than sooner.

Sorry to hear that. But that equals more time with the family! The family stories are some of my faves.

Will try to oblige you. ;)

Wow, sorry to hear that. Take it easy for a while, and then get right back up on that horse.

Awww...Nina!!! *HUGS EXTRA EXTRA TIGHT* It seems to be that time of year. 2 of my clients have been laid off around here...

[identity profile] neanahe.livejournal.com 2007-02-17 07:26 pm (UTC)(link)
At least they didn't lay me off at Christmas time; that would have really sucked.

It's a new year, and that's when a lot of companies reassess things and do their hiring and firings. I worked for a company that was cutting personnel, now I've got to find one that is planning to expand this year. :)

Shit. I hope things turn around for you, at least a good 120.

Sorry

You're not alone, my husband got demoted this Jan and that cuts around 1,200 out of our monthly pay (which we really needed for like, the house payment!)

Sometimes life just isn't that great, is it?

Do you plan to look for something else?

My sympathy...

I have to look for something else: I've got a mortgage to pay and a debt load like you wouldn't believe (long story). Something will come up, hopefully with a shorter commute for me. 34+ miles each way was wearing my nerves thin. Sadly, I can say it wore my body any thinner. :)
