Sorry to hear that. Hopefully you line up a new gig real soon. At least you got time on your hands. Go blow holes in shit.
Sorry the hear that, hope something comes along soon !!
sorry to hear, man. a few folks got laid off at my work yesterday as well
Look at it this way ... now you can get your average up (you're posting average is only 4.29 posts per day). [Tooth]
seriously though, sorry to hear about your situation.
Haha thanks fellas, yeah Zund I'm working on it. :)
I'm gonna capitalize on this, got a really decent severance out of it...so time to kick some ass and make something better.
Yeah I got laid off 4 months ago.... so lots of time for shooting, as I have lots of ammo laid up in the garage.
Sucks man..
But yeah.. no you have time to punch holes in paper..
AND we have two posts to get your whoring or boost skills up..whichever you prefer to be called.. [Beer]
Shit dude, that's shitty! Keep your head up, hopefully the tide will change quickly for you.

They were showing on the news the McD's in Norse Dahota pays $15/hr to start [Beer]

Bummer. Sorry to hear about that.
Enjoy yourself for a day or two then get back out there. Turn that severance package into a hiring bonus for next job! Good luck!

And I was going to give you grief for rubbing it in. Now I feel a bond with you. Good luck finding something brother.
I was selling dedicated managed servers for the last few years and also SaaS products like MS Exchange, Zimbra, Sharepoint and such.Quote:

Being unemployed is GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's the lack of a paycheck thing that sucks.
BTW, start with the unemployment office FIRST, can take weeks to get started. (and your severance has to run out first), but get the claim in and running.
health insurance is the big problem. COBRA BLOWS. it's way expensive. BUT, there's a sweet little catch. You can always just pay your COBRA insurance in arrears. Meaning, you can go without for 3, 4, 5 months and if something happens, you just pay the 3,4,5 months worth of back dated premiums and you're covered. And if you get insurance/another job before COBRA runs out (18 months), and you haven't paid a dime.
After that, just get a catastrophic package so little things you have to pay for but maybe $100 or $200 a month if something big happens.
BTW, hit the doctors hard today, it probably runs out end of the month (today), they can usually squeeze you in for a physical whatever, as long as you explain what just happened.
sorry to hear it
Sorry to hear buddy. Dont stress at all, shit ALWAYS works out. And it works out exactly when its supposed to
I can almost guarantee that this happened so another door could open.
Keep your head up man
that sucks...hopefully it doesnt last to long[Luck]
I know it sounds cliche, but for every door that closes, another opens. I worked for 13 years for a company that went tits up, and ended up starting my own business. 15 years later, I'm still working for myself, making decent money, and enjoying what I do. My boss is a real dickhead, though.
Sorry to hear that. Sounds like you're maintaining a positive attitude. That will get you back in the saddle.
[Beer]
Oh, I may be there (again) after next week..
Sorry to hear about the Layoff.Quote:

good luck [Beer]
Don't forget how selfish and self absorbed he is too Jim.Quote:
