Well, I certainly didn't expect my first post at OS would be to announce yet another casualty in the bad economy. Four years, three as a manager with this company, no communication, no chance to make changes or otherwise save my buttocks, just handed a letter telling me my position is being eliminated due to the economic downturn, a ubiquitous Office Depot paper box to put my shit in and the ceremonious stripping of Company phone, keys and AMEX.
Balls.

I has just gotten back from a business trip for them...with in the hour I returned....I was a statistic.
Keep your chin up!
It was positively Wagnerian, kicked out in the rain, peal of thunder as the door closed behind me. The worst part was the platitudes n the letter, with his knowing my wife was diagnosed with Huntington's less than a year ago while I am not so bitter as to micturate on good wishes, his prayers won't exactly pay the bills. But I guess the disease is a bit of a blessing in itself since her SSDI got approved just last month. My 7 year old is a trooper, been working to cheer me up all night, whatta boy.
I've got some leads, revised the resume just last week, already have a few feelers out and the othert upside is more OS TIME!
More T&D, more squirrel, more Theodora, more Verbal Remedy, Jocelyn Testes-Harder, More Jess, MORE FREAKY TROLL. I may be poor but I have you all to keep me sane (or make me feel sane, wev.).
Again, much love.
