D-DAY....

well guys, today was the day. i got fired from my job. i guess i knew this day was coming, but i wasn't prepared for how i would feel. i know it hasn't been forever, but i have been there for 4 1/2 years and i have made a lot of good friends and it just really has been a comfort zone for me. i guess the good thing is, the president of the union and the director of the call center both told me that they will give me letters of recommendation if i need them. they really treated me very well. i cried all afternoon. i'm just scared... hugs~mary jo

Ahhhhh Sweetie, Hang in there. You will be able to spend a little more time with your kids and then I bet a more wonderful job will be there for you!! You are a wonderful person and you deserve all good things. So, don't settle for less when you are looking!!! Hugs! Jo

((((jo))))) that is one thing i am happy about. the kids have easter break next week, so i will be able to spend time with them. and it gives me the opportunity to find a job i like and that pays enough, rather than jumping right into something. right now, i just want to apply for unemployment and apply for family health plus because i lose my medical insurance the end of the month. hugsssssss

Ohhhhhh Mary Jo....(((hug)))... I'm so sorry. It is good that they were nice about it and are willing to give you the letters. Don't let this drag you down. There is a better opportunity just waiting for you out there! I will send out a prayer for you tonight that you will be led right to it. Shoot me an email if you need help with your resume or cover letter. I'll even search the net to try to find something in your area. It's worth a shot...right? Luv ya, Pam

((((pam))))))) pleaseeee let there be a better opportunity for me out there! i hope i can find it, lord knows it won't find me! hey, i might actually email you a copy of my resume. it could probably use some "sprucing". i think right now it is more directed towards a sales position and i don't think i really want to go down that road again. i can't be stressed about making quotas, makes my life hell! so is it ok if i email ya a copy later? love you! you are the best!!!

((((((Mary Jo))))))) Sorry to hear about this... I know it must be a really difficult time for you. I will be praying for you, that the perfect job will be revealed. In the meantime, enjoy those kiddos of yours. That's the silver lining! Take care, Kerri

((((kerri))))) thanks so much for the prayers! i would love to find that perfect job! next week off with the kids will be nice. they are off of school. we sure could use some quality time! hugssssssssss

Mary Jo this door has closed so that you can walk through a bigger and better one. Just think of how you have changed in the last 4 years. You have so many great possibilities to look forward to now. Good luck (although i bet you won't need it) Monica
