You know what? F*ck them. So yesterday I was pulled into my boss' office. You know what he told me? We're "Downsizing" Riiight, you know what that means for little ol' me? I got canned! And since I am technically a "temp" I get no benefits. F*ck them all. I don't mean to rant but gah! Getting Fired for no reason past "The powers that be think we aren't making enough money".

This totally bites. Mom and Nana CHEWED me out over it. They called me a lazy...well, I can let you think up the rest of this because I am not going to elaborate. So now I am basically screwed. I was doing well enough to get a place of my own soon and now I am back to square one and still living at home. Ugh. I want to die.

So now I am putting out my resume and hoping that somewhere in this f*cking market they will need someone with a GED and no other degrees. Yeah, why on this green earth will anyone want an angry Italian girl who doesn't have any real skills? I am going to have to manage a fast food restaurant aren't I? And now I think I may just cry a bit more. At least I have those classes at the local Community College coming up. *Thumbs up* Yay, I get to pay for that too!!

One of the ladies at work told me that 'things will get better' when I was having such a horrible weekend. And you know what, it actually did turn out better! So hey, I give you as much luck and good karma as I can give away... and pray you find something rockin to do that pays amazing. (I need one of those jobs too, so if you find they need two people, let me know....)

If I find a place like that, I will tell you. Until them I have until the end of the month to finish and leave. Here's hoping that I get a good job somewhere else. And I love Glitch! That was a Scifi miniseries that I loved.

The same thing happened to me years ago. I was a temp, too. A few other temps and I were called into a "meeting" where we were told that the branch was downsizing and closing and we would no longer have jobs. Everyone else was being paid to move to other branches, except us. Buh-bye!
Don't worry though. I didn't have any "skills" back then either, and no college degrees, and now I'm an office manager. Just add it to your experience and move forward. Good luck

Yeah, that's what I am hoping to do. I am now at home and calling up the temp agency I was employed to until I got a full time job at the place I was. I've been there since I was nineteen so I am really peeved. I guess they wanted to be a bigger place and show "Everyone has a BA in something here. Bah, may move to Iowa and go to the same school WA is going to. Seems rather close to the Illinois Border...maybe. I just want to move out and get my own freaking place.
