Default lamest day of my life...

So I come home today and start printing out some papers I need to fill out for a part time job I just got employed for. After filling them out I check my mail and what I get is an email from the regional manager saying all of the employees are being laid off because a contract was suspended. I was working for a 3rd party company that helped other companies find sales associates. So, I was going to be a sales associate for Comcast internet and cable, and now...before I even work my first shift, I've been fired........

so for now, my car will continue to look like an allroad w/ SLIII's cuz I was gonna use the money for H&R springs and Bilstein shocks...=T

Default That sucks. Sorry to hear that.

But the great thing about sales jobs is that they're always out there! So chin up!

Default It only seems like a long time to you. soon enough you'll be dropped.

we'll have to meet up sometime. 2 dolphins and 8 3 piece wheels make for nice pics. Maybe I can get Carson to bring his S4. That would be cool. 3 dolphins and 12 3 piece wheels.

Default Tough break man, but it could be worse...

In my case I was working with a semiconductor company for 7.5years, 3.5years in Portland...I just happened to be in the wrong department at the wrong time when the company shed half of it's workforce...

I ended up having to move country and sell my car,and have a long distance relationship for over a year...

Mind you good thing (apart from the car) was that I got a better job, girlfriend moved over to me...so it ain't so bad...

So have faith and put it down to experience...there is no such thing as a job for life these days...something better will be around the corner...
