I have NEVER been fired in my life!! Now I don't know what to do because we have a ton of bills to pay and 2 kids, 2 dogs to take care of. So, would you guys please keep us in your prayers, things are gonna be tight for a while. Thanks guys!

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | OMG - talk about a Merry Christmas - NOT !!! That's awful for you !! I hope things can take a turn for the better in 2006 - when I got laid off I thought it was the end of my world - but it actually opened up doors for things I hadn't tried before .....you both get to collect unemployment right ? It sucks they did this right at the holidays when everyone just spent money on Christmas ....Big hugs to you both |

Donating YT 14K Club Member | Oh, Man! Wow! Just remember that everything happens for a reason and when someone closes a door, they open a window. I hope that you guys will be okay.

| Yeah, he has his going, and I am going to start mine after the New Years. What really ticks me off the most is I didn't do anything wrong, I would've expected it if I did, but oh well. Thnks you guys. I am hoping that doors will start opening soon.

I would check with your State Department of Employment and Training to see what they may have to say. GOOD LUCK to your family! Tough way to start a new year...

| I know this is comming at a bad time of the year, get your unemployment and start looking for those open windows. Is the company you worked for big? do they have any employee handbooks? if so look for the section on termination- do they have a policy? I am sorry this happened to you both |

| Oh no Amanda, how horrible!!!!!!!!! I feel so bad for you both!!!!! I hope there is a silver lining somewhere in this gray cloud. I think when God shuts one door he opens another so keep looking for that door. If you need anything or just need to talk, you have my number. Keep your chin up though and don't get down!!!

Donating YT 30K Club Member | I' feel so bad for you! I know what you mean ! Last January I was called into HR and told my position had been eliminated after 33 years and that I would be retiring 2/1. I had a new boss who hated me for no apparent reason other than the staff liked me and were scared of her, also they were letting go higher paid long time employees to replace with younger lower salaried peopel. They made us sign a statement that we wouldn't sue in order to get our severence pay. I was fortunate in that I could collect my pension although it is greatly reduced and I couldn't get unemployment because I was getting a pension, and they gave me a years severence. In hind sight it was the best thing that could happen. I paid off as many bills as possible refinanced the house and paid off the car payment with extra money I took out on the mortgage and cut way back. My dtr was in her 1st year of college but works and goes to school fulltime takes care of her expenses now. Then in February i was diagnosed with a brain tumor thankfully benign but this past 11 months has really taught me that I can get through things I didn't think I could and I have had time to help my father in law who recently passed away at 86 and my 86 year old parents. AND best of all I finally got the nerve up to get a second dog and Cali has turned this bad year into a great year! So good luck and remember you are strong and things will get better.

| Wow, That bites!! But Villette is right about new things happening.. When I was laid off at this crappy media job I was devastated!! Then I was hired again and now I'm the Principal's Secertary, Still in the same old school but the pay is a bit better!! My husband a few years ago quit his job and I didn't know what we were going to do, but he started his own business and even though I wonder sometimes, he is at least happy, which is half the battle. Hang in there something will come along.
