Been laid off... #&$%

illinoisgolf99

Just got laid off from my first "real world" job/career. Their reasoning is that the company is losing money and blah blah blah. Great way to start off my scheduled vacation to go look for wedding venues. Now I need to sell anything of value to help pay rent and help pay for the wedding... Yayyyy... Anyway I'm sure you'll be seeing me post in the "what are you drinking today" and "what are you smoking tonight" threads very soon.

Jarett, very sorry to hear about the bad news. I am sure something better will come up. Take care.

That is disheartening news, my friend, but try to maintain a positive outlook. Something will come along. Usually something better. I'll hold good thoughts for ya.......

Sorry to hear bro. If you need anything to hold you over please just hit me up. I think having your addy may not be a bad thing either. PM to ya.

Sorry for that news Jarett, keep your head up my man...take a couple days to process then hit it hard, you'll come out on top.

Been there Jarett.. It's very unsettling right away, but things have a way of working out.
Hope your bounce back is quick.

My advice from having been there...don't let it get you down.

I won't say that I have been there, because I haven't. So I can't say I know what you are going through.
That said, I hope the best for you and my grandfather once told me that everything happens for a purpose and I believe in that.

Brother... I have been exactly in your shoes - laid off, right before a wedding.. Know that my thoughts and prayers are with you, and I am always available if you need someone to talk to/vent/otherwise. Many of the BOTL on this forum were lifesavers for me during that time (you guys know who you are).

So sorry to read this. I know how your feeling, I lost my job when my wife was seven months pregnant. Just remember when one door closes another opens. And if it doesn't open, kick it open!

Sorry to hear it brother, Hope you can find somehting better immediately.

james40

That sucks bro, I hope you find something better soon. Keep your head up and try to be in good spirits - you never know when something may just come your way.

Rhamlin

Sorry to hear this news brother. Don't know what line of work your in but hopefully it's one that's in high demand. I've never been laid off but I've expierenced times when things have been extremely slow. Where I only got to work half as much as is normal.

A bunch of us have been through similar situations the last couple of years. We know the struggle so vent here and reach out if you need to let out some frustration. Easier said then done but try to stay positive. It will turn around.
