So…I went on vacation over the last week (more blogs coming later), only to hurry home so that I could be at work today. THEN, I got to work and my boss informed me that I was being laid off. Gee, thanks. You couldn’t have CALLED?! I shouldn’t be angry, but I find myself very hurt, frustrated, ANGRY and downright pissy over this new development. I have applied to more jobs today than I would care to mention, and am hoping to start getting some calls next week. I really hope that I am able to find a position in the legal field, since that’s what I am going to school for. I think that what irks me most is that my assistant (MY assistant, who I HIRED!) is taking my place. Nice. It’s great to be replaced by someone with less experience, and a lower pay grade. I suppose that I should be grateful that I am forced to look for a job where I’ll be appreciated. I know that I’m not alone in this world, there are lots of people suffering right now. Thanks for listening to my rant. I promise that my blog will be about health and happines…I’m just in a little bit of a funk today. Love ya’ll! AND I’ll be announcing the winner of the Squeeze Contest on SUNDAY! That’s GREAT news!!

So sorry! I hope you find something great soon.
oh no! my husband has been w/o a job since last october, he’s going to school now to get his teaching licensure, but teachers are getting laid off in NC like crazy so things aren’t looking up there either! i know that doesn’t sound very encouraging! ha!
but you will be fine! you have such a GREAT contagious personality! i know you will find something soon!
good luck!
I will keep my ears open for you…I really am so sorry you were laid off – but things do happen for a reason and I know that you will soon find the job you DESERVE and are RESPECTED!!!!!!!
I’m prayin for ya!
Love,

Thank y’all for the support! I truly believe that everything happens for a reason, and I obviously need to learn something. I have an interview at LA Fitness tomorrow…wish me luck!!
sorry to hear about your layoff…but I believe all things happen for a reason. I am also sorry to hear about your riff with Spark. You were a huge inspiration for me and probably the main reason I started running. I will visit you here, but will miss you on Spark (not that I am as active as I was).
I hope things work out for you too! I have an interview for a teaching job with Houston ISD tomorrow and I’m kind of worried about my job situation too. We’ll both find something, I’m sure. It is hard not to take it personally or get discouraged, but I looked at it as the fact that I have a LOT of time to exercise right now. Haha.
Oh my gosh Brea! That’s awful! {{{BIG HUGS}}} You are going to find something even more wonderful that where you were. It’s their loss!!
