Big hug, SP! I'm sorry you're having to go through this with your job. It's not fair in the least, of course, but it happens ALL THE TIME. I know you'll bounce back and you just need to vent though.

Best of luck in your job search...it sucks that you have to go through that again so soon though.

Omg Peanut!
You're never going to believe this but, you are mirroring just about exactly what is currently happening to me!!! I got the 'boot' on April 9th, and my boss did the same thing, (stay on until you find a job) except now, they have put a final date of June 9th. I just started this job in Finance in Jan, and it took me 6mos to find it with the help of a staffing agency. I have 2 children and a 1,200 rent to pay etc etc etc. SO I can totally understand your frustrations!!! Except in weeks like yours, or mine, I would NEVER say, Ok, what next!!! lol...That's just asking for trouble with my luck! lol...

Just wanted to share.. I hope this week is better for you!

Yeah, it hasn't been a fun few months. There isn't just the job thing either. There are lots of other variables that are bringing me down, so I'm wicked afraid to say 'what else', joking or not..but I DO get what you mean by it! :0 Just incredible.

I am a Pisces, and pretty much true to form. My best friend is a Libra.

It's so good that you can take this and just bring it around 100%. I am having a lot of trouble doing that lately. I am usually one that is quick to bounce back, but this final straw has weakened my ability to bounce right back.

I am on Monster, I look in the Boston Job Hunt (online), I'm on with 3 different professional staffing agencies (frankly i think they are a crock just looking out to meet their quota for the day or month etc). I think that if there wasn't soooooo much going on that it really wouldn't be soo crushing to me right now, but it just seems that every time I get my feel settled, I get uprooted. It's just so damn frustrating. Just this morning, I found our that Verizon will not remove a bad credit rating they gave me just because I paid ONE DAY past the late day mark!! I was so angry, i told the guy, "I hope you have someone NOT take mercy on you the next time you need it!" Friggin collection people.. really, who can do that job without going home at night just feelig awful about what they do??
I'm waiting for the phrase "this too will pass" to ACTUALLY take place!! ARRGHH!

Thanks for letting me semi-vent. ( i don't want to completly vent, i may explode! ) lol

Yes, I’m sorry to hear that and sorry you have other bad things happening. Doesn’t seem fair does it?
