dfwmiket Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 So the company you work for sells for 25 billion dollars and you promptly get notified you are part of an across the board 'reduction in force'........ thanks a lot. I worked 77 hours last week, and today I'm unemployed. Oh joy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve J Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 (edited) Damn. And you've been putting in 60+ hour work weeks for them. It must have been a blindly bureaucratic decision. No way to run a business. You'll find better. ETA: but this time try to keep your hours in a normal range so the parasites don't expect it. (oh, my... that was very anti-establishment of me ) Edited July 31, 2008 by Steve J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Bell Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Keep your head up and maybe take a little break before you start looking. I've been there done that, currently recovering from it! As a real plus the people I work for now are actually nice and appreciate me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3quartertime Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Losing a job really blows... Been there done that... Find a good one to try out. Lots of good jobs out there for the right people! Have the best time you can in between jobs. We don't get that many breaks from work. I made B class after I was laid off!!! Good luck and hang in there!!!
