Grrrrrrrr. How much does THAT suck. Not that this job was my life or anything, or even what I really wanted to be doing at all, but still. It was a job. My cowardly boss sat me down and said 'I gotta lay you off' and busted outta the office like 30 seconds later.
wellll.... i guess the upside to this is that now i can sit on LIW all day without worrying abt getting fired!!! Blessing in disguise huh....
Hope you guys are all having a better day than I am. I cant really tell how I feel abt all this yet soooo.... I'm gonna stuff my face and watch some TV and feel sorry for myself for now!

So sorry!! I've been there. It stinks. But it definitely was a blessing in disguise. Good luck! Enjoy your time off.

I totally know how bad that sucks-- I was laid off twice in the past two years-- after making it through the internet bubble and seeing all of my friends get laid off- thought it would never happen to me-- but it did. TWICE.

Just try to stay positive.. look for a job.. something will happen eventually. It's not the end of the world and you'll make it through.

All things happen for a reason, enjoy the time off and then start looking.

I'm so sorry! It will make sense eventually. Take a few days to relax before you start looking for something. Can you collect unemployment? I would get the government money, and get a little PT job off the books for extra cash...just a thought.

Hooray for playing on LIW all day!

Well collect some unemployment, be LIW queen for awhile, wedding plan 24/7, luxuriate in naps, and update your resume...a much better job with a boss who hopefully has some leadership and backbone is out there! I think you'll be more than fine, you'll be better in the end!

Re: Not a good day. Got laid off.

THANKS EVERYONE!! you guys are the best. I'm really not bummed out abt it anymore, I mean it was def a shock, but I'm absolutely looking at this as a blessing in disguise.

Now if only I could get my dad off my back abt accepting every boring job he knows of.... Thats whats REALLY stressing me out. I kind of have an idea of what I want to do, but its not a 'job job', although the moneys great, and he just doesnt think its a good idea. So this is my headache now. How am i supposed to tell him to back off and just let me do what I want without hurting his feelings or feeling like he doesnt approve? I mean im not 17 anymore....

and NO the job is not stripping!!!
