Meh...Now It's My Turn To Be Unemployed
At 8:30 yesterday morning, I got a phone call at my desk. It was my boss asking me to come down to conference room 1. The only reason to get called to conference room 1 is to get punished or fired, so I pretty much figured it was the latter.
Yup.
I walk in and my boss is sitting there with the corporate head of HR.
In a nutshell, sales are down 40% from last year. When the number is that big, you know heads are gonna roll. This time around, it's my head. I knew it was coming, though. I've been doing peon jobs for the last several months. No major assignments - just cleanup work. Yay.
So, now I'm living off my "separation package" until I find another job. If I don't find something, then it's time to apply for unenjoyment compensation.
Change I can believe in, for sure.
So, I'm sending resumes today. If anyone knows of anything in Western PA (up to one hour from Grove City) in the advertising/public relations/marketing field, let me know!
