I hate havin' to say this

I've been trying not to post this since Thursday, because it sucks but whatever, I just cannot NOT post it, I'll eventually have to. I learned late Thursday afternoon that I was laid off. Because of financial difficulties, my job will be cut, so in 2 weeks, I won't be working at BCM anymore. They wish they could keep me, because I'm good at what I do and I'm professional but they've got to lay me off. cry (the company's struggling because the industry isn't easy at the moment)

I don't really wish to talk about it I have told very close friends but not everyone close to me because that's the way I am. Anyway, few people know, I'll be fine. I just think it'll all become more real if I say it here too. lol

I had my Friday off as planned but they offered it to me, without taking on my vacation time. I'm ready to go tomorrow. I just hope no one will be uncomfortable... From what I understand 5 employees were laid off, I'll see who the are tomorrow.

Anyway, that's update... I don't really have much more to say. I did had a OK weekend, was with a friend on Friday night, Saturday TTF and I did stuff to fix the church's microphone and system and we all had dinner together and a fun night.

I need time and peace....smile

That sure sucks. Especially since you enjoyed working there. :o( Still, God may have something better up His sleeve for you!

I know He does Candy... I also feel I had signs because I received the book "who moved my cheese" and I bought "water the flowers not the weeds" and "the precious present", I just wish I didn't had to face this. (I know it's silly to say)

I'm going there tomorrow morning and it's making my heart feel heavy just to think about it.

I'll do my job and be professional, no worries but my heart feels very heavy.

Thanks for the thoughts.

Oh, no nonense, I'm so sorry! That does truly suck. I know how much you loved working there. If you need to talk or anything, I'm here. I don't want to give you a ton of platitudes-I'm sure you're hearing them all over the place anyway. But, for what it's worth, you're in my prayers. I truly believe there's something even better out there for you. There, I gave you a platitude anyway. :) I'd apologize, but I think that particular platitude is probably true.

Oh shoot. I'm very sorry. I can only tell you (having survived 3 lay offs myself - hubby 4) that every time I was laid off, I went on to something so much better. Maybe next time you'll find your hearts desire.
