Some of you may know this, most of you probably don’t, but I’ve mentioned at bigcloset in comments that I was afraid for my job. Well, it appears, just as I feared, that I will be getting laid off by April.<\/p>\n
I do have my tax return to fall back on, and since the company I work for is closing the entire office, I will get what you might call a bonus for staying on until the bitter end as we have a lot of loose ends to tie up. I don’t know if that’s going to happen. I remain undecided at this moment, news has only just trickled down this morning so I’m unsure what this ‘bonus’ amount will be, but suffice it to say I am in a good enough financial situation that I should be able to keep myself afloat for some time after my final day. I’m trying to stay positive about this but it’s hard. I am really bummed about this, there are a lot of friendships I’ve made over the course of my employment and truth be told I’ve gotten very comfortable where I’m at in life. Also, I hate job hunting. Good news is I have enough experience and expertise to help me land another job and some of those skills could crossover into other fields if absolutely necessary.<\/p>\n
What does this mean for my writing and my website? Well, I have another year of web-hosting paid for my website. So I won’t need to worry about keeping up on any payments. Internet is included in my rent so as long as I keep that up I should still have access. I’m pretty down today and don’t feel up to writing or really doing much of anything, but when I get bad news of this sort I tend to spend a day or two feeling sorry for myself and jump right back into my writing so I wouldn’t expect any delays in that regard. Even if it were I have enough of a backlog that it will be months before it becomes an issue.<\/p>\n
Everyone have a delightfully demented day (at least better than the one I’m having),<\/p>\n
