Letting more people go this morning, blood bath - Friday was just round 1 I guess.  I just lost a guy on my team, they didn't even tell me.
Sounds like a fine operation you're working for Yellow Star.  What do they do?
They just let me go. Just got home-oof

Sorry to hear that Shaun.  Having been through that three times myself, know that it is probably for the best and there are better opportunities to move on to.
I've been thinking of moving on for a while now, I guess they made my movement and decision for me!

Jayzus, that sucks.  Sorry to hear it, Shaun.
Thanks bud - first time in my life for everything I guess
Holy shit sorry Shaun I was reading and hoping you were only joking. If it helps I got let go once and it lead to the best job I've ever had (current) so look at it as an opportunity to improve

Absolutely, thank you guys for all of the kinds words.  Was a flooring experience, now it's time to really get to work.

The other night I heard a big crash.  It sounded like some one took a big metal trash can and slammed it on my front porch.  I got up and looked out the front window, and there was nothing out there.  No people, traffic, nothing.  I went back to the computer and sat down and started thinking, "gezz, I keep hearing noises in this house as if it's haunted or something..?"  Now I know I can't be that crazy...? That was just too big of a crash, I'm going to look again.  Again, nothing...  I'm looking out the front window when I notice a van parked about 2 houses down, brake lights come on and off.  I start watching the van, and again about every 30 seconds the brake lights tap on and off.  This is weird...  Did that van have anything to do with that loud crash...?  I look up, right across the street, and a 3 year old Nissan Altima that's parked in the street, rear bumper is pushed up the the rear window.  Yikes, how the hell did I miss that...?  Now I'm looking at the van again, watching the break lights coming on and off thinking, "I think that van may have had something to do with this..?"  Then it dawns on me, "YIKES, the person in the van must be hurt..!!!"  I'm trying to franticall take off my pj's, and find my pants.  I get dressed, and look out the window one last time.  Now there's people running up and down the sidewalks.  By the time I get out of the house, two police cars show up, so now I can relax since someone is looking out for the accident.  Within a few minutes two ambulances show up.  Then two wreckers.  It sort of bothered me that someone got hurt like that and I'm just looking out the window thinking, "duh, I wonder what that noise was...?"  Ghosts again..?

I thought the same thing, I kept scrolling through before I responded, hoping it was a joke.

Sorry Shaun, but like others have said, could turn out to be a really good thing, though pretty hard to see that from today.  I'm betting it won't be long before some nice opportunities come your way.

It really flattens your self-esteem.  The cure is to hit the ground running, even though you fell like crawling up in a bottle of whiskey for a week. So, put one resume out today.  You'll feel much better.

Thank you Mark!  Already trying to look forward - all about how you react and get up from these situations.

And with a concerted effort you'll pass into the rarefied 10K gold star category.  A resume enhancer, fo sho!

I just found a job I am going to throw one out there for - has a lot of what I want to do.
