Grr.... lost my cushy job.

[Ganja Dude]

Damnit, I just thought people may get a kick out of this. I've been working for this company doing random crap like filing and such for $12.50/hr which I consider very easy money for the amount of work I did. I've been there almost a year now and today they hired a new head of the department. Well this new fuck calls me to a meeting to fire me. The whole "oh we like you but we have no need for your services at this time" and the best part "we'll call you if we need you in the future". This new assisant's expression doesn't change and I could tell flat out they're not gonna call me. Ahh, w/e. Back to minimum wage :hippy:

I'm sorry dude, that really sucks! I'm sending some good vibes your way. I'm unemployed myself, so I know the feeling. I've also been fired, laid off, "let go", so I know what you're going through.

That sucks, man. Didn't they give you some kind of reason? What about severance pay? You are certainly qualified for unemployment benefits, which would probably be about the same as minimum wage while you regroup. Good luck.:thumbsup:

[Ganja Dude]

They gave no reason. It's probally because this new manager wants to get rid of as many people as possible. I can see how I would be first to go since I'm like the assistant to the fileboy which is the way bottom of the food chain. No two weeks notice either, they said don't come in tommorrow. I should get a new job soon, just gotta stop being lazy. I can't collect unemployment because I think I'm still considered a full time student.

Oh no dude. Fuck that shit. Fuuuuuuuckk that shit.

Keep your head up and your spirits high.

lol be thankful for the year you got, that sounds like it was a good thing you had going. I may have the same job you had filing, office bitch (not bad at all), and not really doing much at all but only making $7. who knows maybe youll find a better job. keep that head held up high :thumbsup:.

[Funkmaster H.O.H.N.]

That sucks hardcore, dude. Good luck in finding another job, and I hope its as sick as that one was.

It's probably a blessing in disguise. You don't know how the future will pan out. Keep your head up high, proactively look for opportunities, and continue to learn and grow.

[weedmaster]

thats harsh, if there was nothing wrong with your work and they are just cutting back, haven't they got to give you some sort of notice. good luck on finding a new job.

[bethesda]

eeeeek. I lost my job too... I used to cut strawberries at the organic grocery store. They told me I talked to much, listened to the music to loud... bah! I agree with THCbongman though. It's a blessing in disguise, you just cannot let the grass grow under your feet so to speak... you'll find something good.

I gotta hope for it, cuz I need some hope myself.
