venerdinero Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 I am ok, i guess seeing that they were so nervous over how calm i was mad me giggle..... Job searching now :)Sorry about the news Star - glad to see you're apparently handling it rather well. Remember that what goes around comes around, and it would appear that you've got a good thing coming! Hang in there!! - just curious - did they have reason to be nervous? did they maybe do something wrong (wrongful termination, age discrimination etc.)?

Mommie2one Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 I think it is so wrong of companies to do that this time of year. I honestly hope you find something soon. Good luck to ya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
star1979 Posted November 22, 2005 Author Share Posted November 22, 2005 It was basically a downsizing thing... no reason to be nervous but they kept staring at me like what is she going to do next....lol Maybe because i am one of the few minorites working in the office and young, plus none of them took the time to know too much about me Sorry about the news Star - glad to see you're apparently handling it rather well.

Is it me or does it seem like job cuts always happen at this time of the year?It's not just you. A few years ago my fiance got laid off on Christmas Eve. CHRISTMAS EVE!!! I could not believe it. It worked out though...a few weeks later another company picked him up and it is much better for us...more overtime, company van. So hopefully everything will work out!
