I got fired from my job today.

I'm a bit ambivalent about it. I wasn't terribly happy or inspired by my position, so I know I didn't put in 100%, and this sort of forces me toward other goals. Still, I did meet what they articulated they wanted, and getting canned just sucks in any context.

Anyway, I need some positive org vibes right now -- so love me, love me please.


change is good! i wish you the best. smile

Pagey

I feel for ya dude. I got canned from the job I had before my current one. The worst thing about it was I did NOT see it coming. It hit me like a brick when they told me, and it affected me for awhile. I wasn't totally happy in the position, but wasn't planning on leaving either. I was never given any indication that this was a possibilty. My boss always told me that he would warn me if things were going south. But he never did...it turned out they were just cutting costs, but it still hurt. I had a hard time trusting people for a long time afterwards.

HOWEVER, it turns out it was THE best thing that happened to me because I am very happy in my current position (been here 5 years now). It made me grow up, find something I really wanted to do, and work for people that I respected and could learn from. I also learned to NEVER take it for granted.

You'll be suprised how much you learn from this experience.

peace

Treat the next week as a holiday, don't just rush into another bad job to pay the bills. Have a rest first (even before looking for another position), your mind will be clearer!


That'll be soo nice

it wasn't for orging on the job all day was it?


Funny you should say that. No comment. shrug




no comment... well i was going to say "sorry, that sucks that you got fired" and give you some condolences, but people who get fired for orging on the job all day deserve to get fired lol


so i hope it wasn't that, because i'm feeling nice today and wouldn't want to have to put on a meaner hat...

Nah... I didn't get booted for being online all day. But, in fairness, my boss mentioned it a few months back, so I curbed my recreational Internet use.

With a little perspective-
say, about 1 month from now-

you should be able to look back on this experience & pull at least 1 legitimately POSITIVE thing from it..

&
then,

as much as you can

build upon this experience

for the next opportunity that comes.
I'll see you tonight..
in ALL MY DREAMS..
