That would be me on Tuesday when my boss called me into her office and gave me the information I have been expecting for a few months...My job is being eliminated, and if I don't find something else within the company by the end of September (when a project I am on wraps up), I will be severed. If you notice the look in the guys eye ALONG with the axe sticking out of this head, you get the general gist of how I felt. Even expecting something...it is still like a punch to the gut...or axe to the head. It has taken me a couple of days to get over the initial shock, but I am good now. I am actually very lucky that my boss was kind enough to give me so much warning...that does not usually happen. Normally they call you in, tell you adios and escort you out the door. So...I am about to begin the daunting task of job hunting. I am not one to change jobs frequently...mainly because I HATE TO INTERVIEW!!! Ce la vie. Now, I don't want everyone FREAKING OUT...every thing will be fine. I would appreciate your prayers ...but other than that, there isn't much anyone can do (unless you are in the energy industry and hear of a great opportunity!!!) Love to all...L

That totally stinks! Happened to me year before last, so I'm an expert at living in Suckville. I landed on my feet and I know you will too. And you could always move to Nashville! (wink wink) Much love to you, sweetie.
