Exactly two years ago, my position was eliminated and I lost my job through no fault of my own.  Like in my previous role, I have been exceeding  all expectations in my new position, even rolling with the punches after a buyout and myriad of changes.  Today (again, exactly two years to the day that I was let go last time) my position was eliminated.  

OK, very funny world.  What have I done to piss you off so much?  Can you let up for like, 5 minutes?

That sucks man. I suggest stealing a red stapler and burning down the building.

At least you have accomplishments to brag about.  That will help going forward.  I had never tangible.  I just worked myself half to death for the bastards.  All I’ve got to show for it is a bad back and bad feet.

Did you at least take a dump on your way out and not flush?

An upper decker would be appropriate.

In reply to joey48442 :

I agree, a dead squirrel tossed up a ventilation duct also works wonders

I guess there is no transferring to some other part of the company?

I know that feel. I was laid off in July 2015 (after just giving up my house and getting a divorce) only to be laid off again 6 months later.

Man, I can't offer anything but condolences and best wishes, but you have both of those in spades.

You'll need to log in to post.
