I'm really sorry, V. I hope this turns out to be a blessing in disguise.

Getting fired sucks. Getting a new job rocks.

Matter of time, BigV, matter of time.

BigV, you're in my thoughts.

Some years back, losing a job was the best thing that ever happened to me. I hope that it can be for you.

Holy Shit! Bummer, man. Fired or laid off?
Post coordinates, after your safely clear, and we'll see what we can do about an air strike.....we're testing Apaches all the time.

You're the 5th person that's told me they lost their job this week. What the hell is going on? I know it's W's fault somehow.

This may be your "big break". You sound like you know your computer stuff, have the personality and language skills, plus a good attitude. You'll be OK, I'm sure of that. After the ripples settle down you'll find a better position.

Of course you may choose to be a goat farmer or run Radar's campaign.
Whatever, you'll do it with style......Big V style.

Everything they're saying is right on the money. You will work again. This is an unscheduled vacation. Lining up with Advent could be a blessing in disguise for someone who wants to observe the season in a Christian manner. Make straight the way. blessings man it will be ok.

I echo wolf. I'm living proof also, I just started a good job a week ago after losing a good one a year ago. It was scary and very depressing at times, but right now I feel a lot better about my working future that I have in the last ten years. You'll get there too. (And it wouldn't have been a whole year, but I worked six months in between, at a suck job that I thought would work into a good one....)

It's true, it IS getting tough out there, but you'll make it through this ok. Keep us updated, and if you get bitchy or whiny, ya got a place to vent!
