Jeebus, Kalshane. I'm so sorry.
The Crying of Natter 49
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Oh, fuck, Kalshane. And man, insult to injury with the whole crack of dawn thing. I'm so very sorry.
Kalshane, that's just evil. I'm sorry! But maybe you're actually better off NOT working for Satan. May you find much better employment with a better company real soon, with just enough time in between to make it like a long vacation.
Aimee is the smitingest.
I'm sorry Kalshane. I hope you find something better than the soul-sucking job from hell's hell soon. Bastards, the lot of 'em.
Thanks, guys.
I'm just glad I hadn't found a house yet. They gave me 9 weeks severance pay and I've got a good bit saved up because of the aforementioned house-hunting, but it still sucks. I figure I'm going to spend this weekend wallowing in misery and start my job hunting in earnest on Monday.
Apparently my boss wasn't even aware this was happening until last night and he's willing to keep an ear out for me and help me with my resume if I need it. It sounded like he had no say in any of it.
It just sucked not being able to say goodbye to any of the people I've worked with for the last 9+ years. I turned in my keys and got escorted straight from HR to my car.
I just got re-orged right out of the company.
Bah, Kalshane. It seemed like they were heading in this direction, what with the whole being so horrible to you that you almost think they WANT you to quit... Ptui. I'm so sorry. I hope that this means that you have time to regroup and find a much, much, better job with saner hours and more understanding management, which will be SO NECESSARY once your little one is born.
But having you come in early and lying to you just sucks. So much a insult + injury thing.
Wow, what a bunch of dickweeds, Kalshane.
Man. Kalshane, that company sucks and blows! I'm so sorry.
Couldn't they have come to your place of employment at your normal arrival hour and re-orged you?
One would think. I'm guessing they just wanted to get it over with before the meeting about the re-org so they could announce it there. I have no clue if anyone else got the same treatment.

This is good, because a good reference will be important! So, kind of a silver lining.
