So, I get an e-mail from my boss today saying that he wants to meet with me right before I leave. When I go in to talk with him and the other manager of the department, they tell me that the higher-ups even higher up than them have cut back the temporary positions, which means that me and a couple of other people are losing our jobs as of next Friday.
Yeah, that's pretty much it. Thanks for playing. Enjoy the consolation toaster.
I didn't even do anything wrong!!! See what happens when you do your best? You get crapped on. So much for that "six-month-to-a-year commitment." June to September is three months, not six, morons.
Wasn't this where I was was three months ago? No job, having to find one and navigate the hell of job hunting and just being pissed off about it. I do have some money saved up, but with rent and utilities and a car payment (that I thankfully paid a little bit ahead), who knows how long it'll last? And now I'm back to searching for jobs on Monster and BS-ing my way to a job that I'll probably lose in a few months anyway because they're done with me. Why am I out here doing this anyway? I could be home working for my dad either on the ranch or in the real estate company. But noooo.... I have to have a retarded social life. Which doesn't exist anyway.
I don't want to do this anymore. Can I just go home?

Oh yeah! And Bro. Van Shaar says "Hi" and he still wants to visit Callo (or however you spell that place ^_^)

Date: 2007-09-22 08:24 pm (UTC)Did I really come across that way? Well I guess in the second pragaph I did. Well, i didn't meant to. My point was that you can come out of this "problem" tons better than you were before it came. Actually, I consider your previous job the "problem" and this (being layed off) is a way to "fix" it.
Callao! I know I was missing something. Well, I have a class with him and as I was walking in for the first time a student was talking about his small town and I said "I bet it isn't as small as Callao." Then Bro. Van Shaar asked me who I knew that lived in Callao and the rest is history ^_^.

Date: 2007-09-25 04:33 am (UTC)I was kind of joking when I said that. It's just that I had gotten off the phone with my mom and I was really upset and it kind of sounded like she really didn't care about it. She really did, but she has a funny way of showing it. It's not like most moms that hug and cuddle their kids when they come crying to them and hand out cookies.
It's a weird thing with my parents. Usually it's the moms that pat you on the back and say it's going to be all right and the dads who want to fix everything. Mine are the opposite. My dad points out all the reasons that everything is going to be just fine and does the moral support thing and my mom racks her brain with a logical way that something can be fixed, but when she can't come up with anything, she says that she doesn't know what to do about it. Guess nobody fits in a perfect little mold, huh?

You can do it! ^_^
