    A SAD DAY.........

    First off i'd like to say hey to everyone on the forum new and old alike.
    Well, today I get through with work and low and behold the economic crisis has finally hit home with me. My boss comes out and tells my entire crew, I work in hv/av and have for 4 yrs. training to become a supervisior, ne wayz the boss tells us that the company is getting rid of the hv/ac department and is gonna be only dealin with refrigeration from now on :shock: so now me and my entire crew are laid off as of thursday. :cry:

    well he started speakin of severance pay and I get excited, yay I can buy more snus, Well that is not the case we are only gonna get 1 dollar for every hr we have worked in the past 2 weeks as severance so wow a hundred extra dollars. I still have no clue what I am gonna do. To top this off my supervisior looks at me and says you'll be okay your young borrow money From your parents well this is such a bullshit remark. I have been on my own since 17 and have not asked for ne thing from my parents simply because they cannot afford to help me and pluss I am a grown man.

    Now all I can think about is how am I gonna pay next months rent, the car insurance, the water etc. I am just freakin out and dont know what to do. Now I can not even relax with my snus because every portion gone is a thought how am I gonna get more? :?:

    In all I just wanted to vent a little I guess, To everyone that has jobs still be very thankful because you could lose it. I hate to think what this would be like if I had children I think I would be servely distraught. I really feel for all the people that are unemployed all the more deeply now. I also think it is bullshit and completely unfair of my boss to just brush me off and not care because I am young. :evil:

    Well I have rambled enough and thks for listening guys.

    P.S. Ill probably be on more now that i have some time that is until they cut off my internet. :cry:

            Damn, dude... I'm really sorry. Seems like everyone's close to or is getting laid off because of the economic downturn everywhere. Hopefully you find something to do soon.

              I'm sorry for ya bud. I feel bad for anyone who is loosing their jobs now.

              Don't forget about unemployment insurance! It may not be much but it's better than nothing at all, especially if you can't find anything for a while.

              I hope you land on your feet! My thoughts are with you.

                  That really sucks. You can probably draw unemployment for 6 months or more, so sign up right away. It doesn't seem like much, but it's enough to survive while you try to find something else.

                          This is 100% correct. Do this as soon as possible, that's what it's there for.

                          Sorry to hear about your situation. Don't get discouraged, either; jobs are still out there, they are just a little harder to find now.....these days you actually have to do work to get work.

                          Oh yeah.....I would sock my boss in the mouth if he laid me off and then told me some shit like that.
