'Cause Dunlin says I have to...

Was let go from my job today.  Which is actually OK, as I was going to give notice tomorrow.  The boss was very nice about it - gave me two week's severance and said she'd be happy to give me a good recommendation.  It just hasn't been a good fit because I don't have the background for that job.  I already have one good job lead, and I'm putting out feelers with some former co-workers.   Monster.com, here I come!

In the meantime, this means I can go to a birthday lunch for a friend on Monday.  Also spend some time with my mother-in-law, who arrives Wednesday afternoon for a visit.  Oooh!  I should go work out.  I'll think of this as a mini-vacation!

Also getting over the tag-end of the cold I caught on the plane ride back from Paris three weeks ago.  It's an amazing pain how they linger.

I'm glad you're staying positive about it, but I'm going to send *HUGS* & *VIBES* your way, too!

Getting fired sucks, even if it is a 'soft' landing for you. *g*

*fingers crossed* on your next job!

Well... at least this way you get the severance you wouldn't have gotten by quitting tomorrow? And yay for leads already!! (I should probably be putting feelers out, but I'm still burying my head in the sand.)

Good luck!!

I'm sorry you got fired, but I'm glad you got severance for the quitting you were going to do anyway!

Best of luck on your search, and I know you'll find an awesome job. *thumbs up*

Whoo, if this is all I need to do to get you to start posting more, then hey, fire up the livejournal, because here I come! <3

Not so much fun to be on the job hunt again, I'm sure. But, it might mean that we'll need to do lunch again soon. {{Hugs}}
