Long time..No post .
As of January 13th (luck date right?) I was laid off my job of almost 14 years. The business had sustained so many losses in my department, not of my doing, that it could not longer afford to pay me. pretty big blow for me. Trying now to find my new normal, draw unemployment and hopefully find another job.
The hardest part for me is the betrayal by people I trusted and was very loyal to. . I asked 60 days ago if I needed to look for work. Was told no. It was obvious things were not going super well and there would be changes. I was also assured for years, if my department closed, I would have a place in another department. That did not happen. They cut me lose with one week notice.
I know if will find work again, hopefully sooner rather than later but it still stings...probably will for awhile.
I hope all is well in the world of my bloggy friends. I think of all you all often, hoping and praying that this year is starting kinder to you than it has me so far :)

Hi Suz!! I am so sorry for the loss of your job. That is a tough blow. I have no doubt that you will find work...sending you lots of positive work vibes and many, many hugs!
ReplyDeleteOh Suz, Major hugs my friend! Both my hubs and I were let go from jobs we held for many years, within months of each other and while preggo with my second... but it turned out to be a blessing... we both found better... and I am positive you will too!!
ReplyDeleteWhhile the sting of betrayal still can be felt years later for us... it is smoothed by knowing that we are better far away from people like that.
Sending positive vibes with Soshayna!
and I can always make you a fancy Turkey costume for your next job interview if you'd like... SURE to get you noticed...
ReplyDeleteHey Suz!!! I am SO sorry. That really sucks. Sending out positive thoughts your way!
ReplyDeleteWe love you and are praying for you! Always remember He does all things for good, and that something amazing will come of this. Romans 8:28-29 :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the love ladies, it has been a tough blow but I know I will make through and it will be something amazing. Keri, I might take you up on the Turkey costume.. :P
ReplyDeleteOh, Suz. That is such a bummer :( Trav getting laid off was so, so hard, but like Keri says, it really was for good. He's got a good job now, close to home, great benefits. The betrayal is the hardest part. I miss talking to you!
ReplyDeleteOh Suz I'm so sorry you lost your job. I'm sure you will find something soon !! One door has to close before a bigger better one opens !!
ReplyDeleteSuz - I was thinking about you today and came to find this crappy news. I'm so sorry to hear about your job and the way they treated you! I "get" layoffs - I don't "get" companies that treat people like crapola. Anyway, I'm sending out good vibes to you!
