Hey guys, so I guess getting laid off gets rid of your appetite! lol! Down a pound. And yes, I said I got laid off...it happened yesterday around 2:00. Myself and 6 other amazing people. It's really sad...the company is not doing well, and it's fairly small, so getting rid of 6 of us is not good...oh well! On to bigger and better things!</P><P>Since yesterday I've done a lot of crying, a lot of resume send-outs, a TON of thinking, and NOT a lot of eating...I'm definitely not myself at the moment, but that'll change sooner rather than later, I hope.</P><P>It's almost 11:30 and I haven't eaten yet today, so I should probably get on that. More laundry and errands are in my future! I think I'm job searched-out for a few hours.</P><P>Hope ur all having a good day!

So sorry about being laid off. As I told you before, it happened to me just before last summer, and its such a punch in the stomach. I feel for ya, and I know you'll be back at work, making even more $$$ soon! And hey - everyone needs a rest every once in a while, this is yours!!!!

Oh man Sorry Rox. You should eat. I hope you have by now. Consider this one of those "when a door closes another one will open" I am sure you will find something soon.

Sorry to hear about the job. Mine is possibly in danger as well, so I get that stress for sure. I hope you find something soon.

Hang in there! Don't let the stress overcome you. Something will come along soon that is exactly what you need job wise. Just take a deep breath, many others have been in your shoes and we too overcame the initial shock and disappointment. But what was around the corner, looking back, makes it not as bad as it is today.

Oh no! I'm so sorry to hear that. Ditto what Cindy said. I hope you get something soon, but in the meantime this is a chance for you to rest and take care of yourself. I was laid off once with a bunch of people and we all went out and got really drunk. It didn't really help anything the next day. Sending out resumes is way more productive!

Thank you, guys! You're an amazing support system, so having you around while I go through this will make things a lot easier. :) And yes, I have eaten since I posted!

Lol.. I second what Beets said! I work in banking so we are NEVER safe... and the time it happened to me we all got trashed in the middle of the day. It was actually a fun memory. I cried though, a ton, and was really upset. But then, like MOMO said, I got a better job for more money. I'm sure the same will happen for you. :)

Oh Gina, I'm so, so sorry about you losing your job. My brother just lost his on Friday, also. I can't imagine what a horrible feeling that may be. My company is really, really small, too, so this is definitely a possibility for me as well. I hope you find something soon. My thoughts are with you.

I'm so sorry that you got laid off. Especially with all the other stress you're under. Things will get better, you'll find a better job. Chin up! This is your year. It's only February, things are going to be great for you!

Thank you, ladies. :) I'm about to start my 2nd official day off of unemployment, and it's filled with dr appts, food shopping, visiting my mom at work, and setting up some lunch dates! lol

I'm really sorry about the lay off. Stay focused and stick to healthy eating! This would not be a good time to let your appitite control you (no matter how much or little you want). Keep eating right to curb the stress. I am praying for you.
