Default Another great day in my life! NOT

Well after a phone conversation I had today with my "supervisor" basically Friday ( tomorrow) is my last day with the company. He pretty much didn't give me much choice but to quit. So no notice at all. Funny thing is that he was with me during the week but was too much a a ******* coward to tell me this face to face.

To top it of the last thing he said insulted me BIG time. Basically he said if I didn't like things his way, go ask my dad for a job. Talk about Unprofessional.

So that really throws a kink in my plans to buy Frakenbonne. Isn't life great. A month ago Renee breaks up with me, now I loose my job. At least I have Crystal to help me through all this ****.

Yeah well **** happens, and at least in my personal life I moved onto better things, so I just hope my next career move will be the same.


Maybe I will have to start a "buy a Canadian a Bonneville fund"

Yeah, I do already have a few options in front of me that I am going to explore and I will see form there.

I know I just have to make one call and I can be working Monday if I want, but I need to explore all my options before I do that.

I'm sure you want to go back to bed and stay there for a while. Things will work themselves out, we all go through peaks and valleys. It is just your turn, my friend. Hang in there!!

Geez, MIke...you really could use a shot of good fortune. Sorry to hear about the job. Hopefully, though, this will lead to something better. I am sending out my "good vibes" in a Northeastern direction (hopefully they reach you soon).

DUCK TAPE!!!!!

Mike..I've been through a couple lay offs where I found myself unemployed. Each time I found another job...there'* tons out there. As well.. each time I noticed my paycheck increased from the old to the new job.

The quickest way to increase your income level is change companies. It'* a positive thing and most likely you will find a job with a larger paycheck.

At this point, it sounds like he needs a shot of whiskey first. A little nerve relaxer never hurt anyone. I hope you can get what you are after in terms of a job. Then mail a box of dog crap to your previous employer.
