So I Lost my Job Today :-(

Well my boss came in and said “Remember when you told me that if I let you go to give you six weeks notice?”

He gave me six weeks notice.

It has to do with the Economy slow down, not my performance or attitude.
I can see his point, I am the largest expense that he has that does not help the bottom line, so hopefully he does not have to let anyone else go.

He did say that he would write me a good letter of recomendation, which would help greatly and I am sure he will be a great referance.

CRAP, I just realized that I will have to start wearing a tie, major bummer. :-(

    Sorry, Bill. That sucks. But, you may just find something much better!! Best of luck in your job hunt. I’ll tell Brian to get in touch with you when he’s back in town in case he has any leads.

    That sucks. Glad you got 6 weeks notice instead of just 2. Check out http://www.nmfn.com/tn/careers–corp–corporate for some leads over the next couple of weeks/months. Its a slow time though Jan will pick up again and this is a great company if you can get in. Let me know if you apply and I’ll push for you to at least get seriously considered.

    I am so sorry Bill. Remember what they say, when one door is closed another one will open. Something like that:) I’ll keep you in my prayers. Love, Aunt Kathy
