where is he?

cborgman said:

I dunno...but, I think it might be bad considering he hasn't been back

He's safe and squeezably soft just like his avatar.
He also runs out at the worst possible moment.

Where's Dan? Im worried

Maybe the meeting was only to tell him that prince.org is now on their list of banned sites, and he shouldn't go there anymore.

If he was looking 4 a bit of attention, he certainly found it.

oops


ahhh well what the hell... i thought he would have said something by the time i came back.
dan if you are on your way to the cayman islands with your secret bank account and don't want to be found i won't tell i promise
just let me come visit you. (did i mention it's snowing like a bitch and i just got stuck in front of my own house? )

It's over.

It's been an emotionally draining day. I was not riffed. But to make a long story short, I was called into three meetings with execs, my boss threatened to walk off the job, and 50% of my workforce are drunk right now. And none of our deliverables are going to given to the business on time.




Mods, please up my thread posting quota. Thanks.

is "i was not riffed" gay slang for "i was not fired"?

if so, then YAY!!!

so is it a good thing you still have to work there?



that you made it out in one piece

Not really. The spirit of the place will be very dreary this year.

But it's a good thing I experienced today. I've been through 4 layoffs and have never been riffed. But this one has been very taxing on me emotionally. I've come to the realization, I need to start looking elsewhere and putting my Graduate degree to real use. But I told myself I want my next job to be worth something--to do some good. I still don't know what that is.

At least now I know what my options ARE if I get laid off.

Okay so you still have your job first order of business is get your resume out to as many companies that have a position in your field.

Then get hooker

Damn! In the Org Pool not only did I have you as being fired, I said that Security would frogmarch you to the door!



Can't you do anything right?!

Be good to yourself tonight. Your body's gone through a lot with all of this stress and adrenaline and whatnot. Drink lots of water and maybe a stiff drink.

Glad to hear you're still gainfully employed.

FunkMistress said:

Is that the same thing as him getting a hooker?



Congratulations on the non-layoff, though.

That's great, hon.

Maybe next time!

i think if you have marketable skills and have a fairly good chance of getting re-hired somewhere else, getting laid off is kind of a godsend. don't you get unemployment? chill out for a while! then when you're good and ready, start interviewing again, and work the lay-off angle for all the pity you can get.

i've been in the work force over 20 years and i've been unwillingly unemployed for a combined total of maybe 5 weeks. lay me off. do it. i need the downtime.

That was like promising Whitney coke, and when she arrives at the crack house she ends up with a carton of soda.
