Unemployed....

.....well not yet. But it could be coming, sooner than later.

Our company received a global wide (covers all companies under the umbrella of the bargle  parent company) that a huge aggressive cost reducing action was taking place immediately, on going til the middle of October. The last paragraph of the email said "no department will be left untouched".  We let a few people in our office go today. Senior vp corps at the head office of said parent bargle company were also let go.

Oh ya, feeling oh so secure.
No one from the highest of vp's to the lowest of the peon staff are safe.

If I come home with a job between tomorrow and end of October, I'll be surprised. We're all replaceable.

Even without the current living arrangements I have, I'd be okay til mid November, rent, bills and extras would be taken care of for a month. I've never been unemployed for more than a few days, but to ever think it will always be that easy to find employment, would be a very bad and unrealistic move on my part.

I'll keep you updated. I'll keep me updated. I'm fairly excitable right now and could go from crying to biting your head off. Until I can calm down, get my ducks in a row and move forward.

I've talked to my boss, and although she can not discuss those things with me in detail, she did say she would let me know in her own way. We've had this arrangement for a few years. It's discreet and professional.

That is all.
