Holy shit, I'm safe. My job is saved. We just won a major contract. Work gave me the rest of the day off, and permission to expense a nice dinner and drinks with whomever I want.
So awesome! (And yay nice dinner!) that's such a relief.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
So very glad for you, Maria, but oh how you deserve an employer who sees your true worth and lets you live your life in good solid years-long increments instead of that 30-day bullshit.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
I KNOW!!! I'm shellshocked. The Chairman of the Board called me himself with the news.

Holy shit, I'm safe. My job is saved.
WOO! Enjoy and celebrate! And possibly do some job searching from a position of newfound security!
