Well, Drat

[przed]

It's been clear for a couple of weeks that our company was probably going to lay some people off.

Today I found out that I was one of those people.

I pretty much had an inkling when my boss booked a last minute meeting with me right after lunch for little to no reason, so it wasn't a complete shock. But still...

On the positive side, this means I can take some time to figure out what I want to do when I grow up. Again.

On the negative side, there's never a good time to be without income.

Anyone need a good technical trainer/video production person?

Bugger, that's awful. I'm so sorry. I really hope you find another job soon - and that it turns out to be a good move in the end (not that that makes it any less stressful in the now). Will they at least shower you with golden references to help with the job search and a redundancy payment to tide you over?

I've been given a nice package and promise of good references (from our VP and others) so it's cushioning the blow a bit. But it's still a blow.
