I just got laid off!

Re: I just got laid off!

Thanks for the words of encouragement everyone!

I'm home now. Before everyone left for lunch the boss let everyone know that the office was closing at noon till January 5th. Bad timing with the Holidays but yet it gives us all more time to spend with loved ones, so it's all good.

I'm checking the weather now trying to figure out the best time to make my way to my parents for Christmas.

cupcakez just shoot me an email if you want any information.

Scott, sorry to hear about this. That's terrible. It sounds like you have a positive outlook and things will work out. Good luck.

Sorry to hear about that. I've gone through a few "rightsizing" exercise on few companies and what I've learned is to always stay positive. Focused on the opportunities that you might find after this.

Re: I just got laid off!

Thanks guys! I'm not trying to get too down about it. Nothing I can do to prevent it so I might as well make the best of it and try to turn it into an opportunity. I love what I do so I can't imaging doing anything else. I wrote a paper in 5th grade about wanting to be an Architect when I grow up. I've stuck with it ever since. I'll take this time to get my paper work filed with the state so I can get registered to take my architectural exam and get licensed.

Thanks Jim for the great info. Never heard of LinkedIn. I'd be happy to try it out.

Scott, I sent you a PM.

The song from Rascal Flatts "My Wish" comes to mind for you for some reason.....

Hand in there and keep us posted and enjoy the time with the family.

Footprints

One night I had a dream--
I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord
and across the sky flashed scenes from my life.
For each scene I noticed two sets of footprints,
one belonged to me and the other to the Lord.
When the last scene of my life flashed before me,
I looked back at the footprints in the sand.
I noticed that many times along the path of my life,
there was only one set of footprints.
I also noticed that it happened at the very lowest
and saddest times in my life.
This really bothered me and I questioned the Lord about it.
"Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you,
you would walk with me all the way,
but I have noticed that during the most troublesome times in my life
there is only one set of footprints.
"I don't understand why in times when I needed you most,
you should leave me."
The Lord replied, "My precious, precious child,
I love you and I would never, never leave you
during your times of trial and suffering.
"When you saw only one set of footprints,
it was then that I carried you."
