joy to the world.

Happy Thanksgiving! Merry Christmas! I just got laid off today!

I was amazed when I wasn't laid off after the first reduction in staffing due to a decrease in incoming files, so it's not really a suprise. Things had been slow at work and it was a challenge to find things to do, even with a skeleton crew. There's a chance that I'll get hired back when things get busy again. I also have this web gig on the side that can now get finished before the holidays.

Holy Yukon! Check out Mr. Gay Alaska. I never saw nuthin' like that when I was up there.

Crap, that really sucks about getting laid off. Hopefully something else will come along soon.

Commiserations on your bad news - I went through it last year, and my bf got laid off last month, so I know it can be shitty! Keep your chin up & get hustling! (No, not in that way - although I'm sure a woofy rugger cub like you could make plenty ;-) ) You've got plenty of time to get yourself fixed with interviews - we're all rooting for ya!

YEEE HAAAA! What a hottie for such a cold climate!

Lay-offs suck. I think the government should make them illegal. That is the socialist in me speaking.
