I got laid off from work yesterday, so if I seem overly grumpy or whatnot it's just that (and not that I hate you). 🙂 Anyhoo I guess that's it since you guys are like my 2nd family. 😛

everyone's getting laid off around my town xie, I believe my company will be out of business next year unless there is some kind of dramatic turnaround

I believe this is no longer a recession, we are in the mid stages of a depression in the states

we're in for a rough ride to be sure, I hope you find work soon
 
I almost got laid off work.... dammit!!! Maybe they should have went through with it with me... lol 😛
 
I'm leaving for camping in a few minutes for the weekend ... hopefully can clear my head and I'll be fine .. see you all sunday. Oh and thanks! 😀
 
well sorry to read you got laid-off but enjoy your weekend
 
Wow, I really need to stop breaking up sentences by hyphens 😛
 
Sorry to hear Xie, hope you find something new soon. Hope you saved a bit to hold you.
 
Sorry to hear, I know the feeling. 8 years ago, was on lay off for almost a full year. was tough, but you have to stay positive. 🙂 have a good time camping Xie
 
Cripes, I'm sorry, xie. I'm lookin for a job, too ... contract ended last Friday and it's not a lot of fun.
 
Not sure if I mentioned it out in the public forums but I no longer work where I worked either. I won't say too much more until its all over but basically I was forced out and made to accept a payoff.

Its one of the few things that have been eating away at me recently, didn't really help that I had to keep up appearances due to a laptop giveaway but I am doing my best to work things out.
 
Damn, anybody else want to pile in on this? Well heres to a pint, and if ya don't, I won't think any less. Here's hoping that you will all find a better job, that pays twice as much with half the work.
 
I just got my contract renewed with a small company in the UK. It was kind of bumpy, being a one man person means I have limitations, and certain needs I may not be able to meet, luckily we were able to work it out.
 
Damn, theres a lot of redundancies going on by the looks of things. Hope you all keep well and manage to find another one.
 
Your mom's a redundancy 😱

And best of luck xie.

As opposed to being a 2 man person? 😱

:smoker:
 
🙁 Good luck Xie and EP, times are tough for everyone these days
