Just got the word last night they are getting rid of a bunch of us for bogus reasons. What burns me up is that there is nothing I can do.....

Gosh...sorry to hear that Mutt....what a great Christmas present. Man, I feel for you. Hope you got something lined up? Best of luck, and you will do well. Hopefully it will turn out to be the best thing that ever happened to you. Probably find something even better!

Well Mutt, lets get together and work out :o)! Considering you and I are in the same boat. It will be a big ol boat before long as this continues. I really look at everything as temporary anymore in jobs now. I won't even bother taking in pictures and personal items anymore. Its not worth the hassle when you never know what will happen! Ill just play the "keep it simple - stupid rule! Well...............hope your resume is updated! It's hard, to be upbeat but you'll get there. I have my good days and bad and I know the motivation comes from within....but it's just hard when you keep hearing of other places laying off or closing and you know it makes your chances slimmer! Ah heck................maybe we needed this break :o)! Keep me posted!

You know, the impression I get from everything you've posted here is that you're a very determined, resourceful person. I don't think you'll be looking for long before you find something new, probably something better. Hang in there, I know everyone here is hoping for the best for you.

Keep your chin up. Something better will come your way. At least you do not have to put up with the magazine issue.

Wow, sorry to hear that Mutt. When one door closes another will always open for you. Keep pumping out the cv's and don't fforget to follow them up. And keep pumping the irons. Don't let it go, now is when you really need it. E-mail me anytime!

Looking on the bright side: at least it's a job you didn't really like anyway. I'm sure you'll find something better.
