So I got laid off today!

Yup…I got laid off today. Without any real reason. My boss told me that evidently I got into it with someone at work while my boss was on vacation. I asked him who I got into it with because I honestly didn’t remember. He replied with “Well, at this point, I’m just following directions from high above and there isn’t anything I can do. We’re gonna have to let you go. I’m sorry.” I told him I understood and clocked out.

The hardest part though, was saying goodbye to the warehouse guys. I’ve been working with them for the last 4 in a half years and we’ve formed amazing friendships. It hurts that they just up and let me go, but I know it’s for the better. Seriously though, it’s the guys that work in the warehouse that I’m going to miss the most from that place. When I said goodbye too one of them, I could just see the sadness and anger in his eyes. I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if he quit sometime soon.

Lucky for me, I’ve got people looking out for me. One of our customers that we work with, that I’ve known for 3 in a half years, said that if he has an opening, he’ll let me know. I told him to keep in touch and he said he would. Then I got a call from my previous boss (because I had texted him that I got laid off). We talked for a good 15 minutes and assured me that this is definitely for the better for me, which I completely agree with.
And lastly, I got a call from my older cousin (who is like a fucking brother to me). I had always told him that I wanted to quit and find a better job. He’s a supervisor at his work and he told me he’d try to get me a spot. He had been talking to his boss about me, letting him know how reliable I am and what not. So during this call, he said that there were some spots opening up and he wants me to email his boss my resume. If I can get a job at my cousin’s company, I’m already better than the 4 fucking years I’ve been working at my previous job. Granted, my cousin’s job is about 45 minutes to an hour away from where I live and I don’t have a car…but my cousin said we’ll work something out…which may involve me staying at his place for 5 days a week.

So yes…that’s what happened to me today. I’ve been feeling like shit because I’ve been sick, and now I get laid off for my final paycheck. Win win for me.

Off to better things now.

That's sounds like he didn't have any real reason at all other than they just needed to fire somebody and some lame excuse was given by the boss by the way that's written. :-/

(A copy and paste from when I posted this on another forum, somewhat explains a little more too)

I'm pretty sure I know who went to the owner of the company...his ex wife. She likes to start shit and exaggerate things. I got laid off, I can collect unemployment, I'm done with them. Ultimately, they're only hurting themselves. Not many people know how to do my job as well as I do, or know all the details of doing it. There's me and my previous boss, who quit. I never fully trained my new supervisor on how to do my job, so there is going to be a lot of shit not getting done.

At this point, like I said, I just don't care anymore. I'm done with them, they can go fuck themselves. The company is a shady place and if you're not apart of "the group", your job isn't safe. I fucking kid you not...there is a guy that works there, who was CAUGHT stealing product from the company and was selling it on eBay that still works there. That SAME guy, was caught with the OWNER'S WIFE having sex with her...and STILL works there. There are people that have done time in jail for the owner that work there. It's a crooked company and I'm glad I'm done with it. I could go on and on about this place and you guys wouldn't believe me at all. You would literally think I was making this shit up but I swear to you, I am not.

I have erectile superfunction.

Not only does it perform at the highest level across the board, but it also requires registering for a concealed weapons license. Also, it makes top notch smoothies.

Yeah just look at him.

So mature and cute. Leaving this place soon for his dream and spiting everyone in the face. Everyone that raised him to the man he is today. Laying a poop on everyone's faces.

I could not be more proud of you son :hug:

Don't listen to some space crap that red is pulling on you.

Go and do the bad thing. Take your money back. It's rightfully yours and if anybody says anything different they are wrong. :tu:

Terrible that you lost your job. With the terrible economy, I doubt you'll find a new job too quickly. Wish the best for you. Shoulda fucked that bitch, though. I mean, if she was just giving it away...

I know people that have been laid off and said the same thing. Still unemployed.

It doesn't mean his potential offers are dead ends, though. :shrug: A potential offer or two is much better than nothing at all.

Personally, I would love to be in Shorty's position right now and have some potential offers. There is jack shit in this town when it comes to work and in the last year I've managed to completely destroy my social life (partially on purpose, to be honest :-/ ) so I don't really know anybody that knows anybody either. So while I do have a job, it's dead end and pays almost nothing. Having some potential offers would be awesome. It's the kind of thing that gives somebody hope rather than just sitting back and realizing they're fucked.

I'm not saying he won't get a job. I'm just saying until he does get one that anyone saying they are looking out for him should be seen as nothing more than kindness. I hope he does get a job. But I think with the current economy, it's going to be harder than he expects...even with people helping him.

It's more than not having any idea of what to do next. He at least has some options to check out and try for, even if they all wind up as dead ends.

BTW, I keep thinking this says "So I got laid today!". Each and every single fucking time. :-/

BTW Part II, I have the urge to make a parody thread entitled "So I got jerked off today!" but feel it would be in poor taste (although I'm not usually one to care about that too much :lol: ) and too much work for what would probably be too little of a reaction. :-/

Obviously these potential jobs are guarantees, I know that. But at least I'm got potential jobs already, after being laid off for less than a day. It's somewhere and even if I don't get a spot at these ones, at least I'm on the right track already. :/
