Breathing again!

About a month ago, I was informed my hours were being cut to part time due to a lack of work in my area.

2 weeks ago, I was informed that they decided to let me ago completely and have all the work transferred to the main office in Atlanta.

Yesterday I got word that I was hired for full time at a new job. With a much higher pay rate. :-)

Life goes on.

You should have told us they planned on dumping you, so we could feel all superior and condescending.




Seriously though, good for you. Obviously you impressed somebody, with your skill and ability.
Don't forget us when you become King of CA.

I lost a job, not my God-given gifts! :-)

Thanks.

It's new job city around here........


that's BigV, me, infi and you in short order. Anyone else?

First job for me and in at the deep end of the Arctic ocean though, so I think I may have stopped breathing rather than started again!

I'm happy for you. Hope this one is better in every other (non$$) aspect too. screw the Atlantans who didn't appreciate you. or don't because they don't deserve you
