RBWilliams Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Eve, sorry to hear about the job situation. Times are extremely hard for everyone and it is sad that they would do that at this time of year. However, anytime is not a great time for it. Keep us posted and we will keep you in our prayers.

eve Posted November 20, 2008 Author Share Posted November 20, 2008 man......... today was soooooooooo frustrating....... most were suppose to be told today............ no one was........ no one would talk about it at all, i kept asking my supervisor, i called both HR numbers, then on my way out i asked my boss's boss... i said "look i am off tomorrow, i wanna know if i have a job to come to Monday" he said plan to come in Monday, they will call you if there is anything different. well what the hell does that mean???? it sounded like i am not going to lose my job which is nice but honestly i do not see how it is possible. i gotta wait for a call tomorrow. i wanted to find out to day so i could clean my locker and go to unemployment tomorrow so i could get that started.

This is a terrible way to treat employees. It could be no decision has been made by the "powers that be." I know at my work the final decisions are coming from the corporate office. My boss is second in charge and she said they won't know anything until corporate makes the call. Having been downsized before I just keep praying I will be able to keep my job. The saving for me might be we are a 3 person department and one gal is leaving for materinty leave in 2 months. They can't run the dept with just one person. Unless they move job functions to corporate. I'm so sorry they are dragging out the decision and you won't know anything until next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hire and fire people everyday. If I was you, I would go ahead and go to the unemployment office. There you can look for other jobs, submit your resume. Your should be able to do this all online too. You might be able to file an unemployment claim online too. What city and state are you in? I will check. As for looking for another job, what do you do again? You should get your resume out there. Start with the unemployment office ( you an register online and submit your resume), then your local newspaper's job listings (they should also be online), send your resume out to all of the temp companies (i know you do not want a temp job, but they may know of full time perm jobs or know of someone who is hiring and can forward your resume to them or they may be hiring with in their own office.They pay very good.), monster.com & careerbuilder.com. You should not even have to leave your home for this. And if your are interested in doing different things, make different resumes to taylor each of your interest.

krissy904 Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 My cards are being mailed today. My ornament was mailed yesterday. So that no one will be shocked, yes, my cards are tacky. But trying to find Florida themed cards in october forced me to pay full price, so can I please have a little credit for that? Also to the person that I sent the ornament, I am the one that didn"t know you weren't supposed to send your (gottadeal) name. So, even before you open it, it's right outside on the return address for God and the entire world to see. Hope I didn"t ruin the game. This was fun, next year I will do better. First I will buy 1/2 price after the holidays! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
