Oh no, Gud! I'm so sorry.
This is a time of celebration, so sit still and be quiet.

Our wings are not tired.
Oh I am sorry to hear that, Gud. Transitions suck.

I'm so sorry, Gud.

I'm sorry, Gud. But I'm glad you hadn't given notice yet.

Yeah, that would have really sucked. Though I did arrange something else that's now a problem. That part I really can't talk about though.
I mean, you'd think you could at least get to your start date before getting laid off.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Also, I am not now, nor have I ever been part of the British government. Certainly not directly.
That's exactly what you'd say.
Sorry about the job situation. When husband finished his MBA, he had a job lined up and was in the middle of all his plans to move, and the company got acquired. He wasn't hearing from them, was chasing people down, and eventually got a hold of someone, who said "Oh, yeah, we got acquired, so there's no job for you." And he, understandably, was like, "WERE YOU GOING TO TELL ME?"

Wow, that's a whole other level of suck.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I mean, you'd think you could at least get to your start date before getting laid off.
Yeah, that situation definitely sucks, but it's so much better than getting laid off shortly after your start date!

Oh Gud, I'm sorry.
I'm at home Very Early, thanks to a combination of a storm with a potential of snow and the ridiculous state of infrastructures in this country. Library was closed at 17:00, so I can nurse my cold at home.
