Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Laga, really sorry. And doubt you were not working well. My guess: they are replacing you with someone cheaper, so they have to have an excuse because they can't call it a layoff if they are retaining your position.

The status is NOT quo.

Damn! I'm so sorry, Laga. I can't imagine anyone being more conscientious at work from what you've told me, though, so I'm confused. What on earth weren't you doing?

Can you at least file for unemployment?

Oh yes. I'm encouraged to file for unemployment plus the severance and I had a huge amount of vacation pay owed me. Right now I have more money in the bank than I've ever had before.
