Just got laid off at work.

They were nice and all with the "We hope this is temporary and would love you have you back."-kinda talk but come ON!

F. M. L.

AW CRAP!!!!

That is the worst news of the day.

Really sorry man.

Man that sucks! What type of company was it?

Sorry man. If you need anything (aside from money cause I'm in the same boat as you) feel free to ask..

My job is done-zo as of December 30 as well.

At least I have some notice and I've been scrambling to find another job. I purchased CS5 on my credit card for at home to try to do some freelance work... I hope it works out!!

Good luck, and I hope your layoff truly is, indeed, temporary.

*Don't no what to say*

That sucks!! I hope something comes your way soon mate. Good luck!!

It hurts, badly.
Best wishes Christopher, stay out of gloominess ..

Thanks for the well wishes and support guys and gals. Means a lot.



I did web development for a log home company. Handled intranet browser applications, corporate internet presence, custom browser-based CRM, built a custom e-store (front and back-ends). Basically worked my ass off for them for the last 3 1/2 years.

Oh well. Unemployment claim started and filed about a half hour ago. First job application just completed and submitted. Monster.com profile created. Appointment with Jobs Center people tomorrow to get the resume all polished up. Rolling baby!


(Now I just gotta tell the wife )

Be careful with MOnster.com, I get a lot of unsolicited email from "employers" with Job offers. I think the spam bots LIVE off of that website!

Thanks for the tip Delia.

So. Told the wife. She's amazing. Didn't flip out or blame me or anything. Simply hugged me and basically said "Okay now let's move forward."

TofuTheMrs is awesome.

I'm so sorry to hear this, Chris. Hope you got a good severance package.

Sorry to hear Mr.Tofu, I hope you will find another job real soon.
I think the good thing is, that there are a lot of web develop/internet related jobs out there (right?)

Good luck!

PS: Nice to share this news first with your PSC family, before with Mrs.Tofu

sucks dude, i too have been working on and off for the last year...good luck!

Good luck on the new applications Tofu and give your mrs a big hug back, hope you get a new job before Christmas.
