Need those Nestie vibes...

We got some bad news yesterday about Rick's job (I knew it was coming, its par for the course with the company he works for).  In a nutshell they are demoting him for no apparent reason other than to give his job to the new spa director...They are cutting his pay drasticlly and while he would basically be doing the same job that he is doing now they are taking away far to much money.  After much talking we decided that it was best that he just give his 2 weeks and call it good.  They have walked all over him for long enough and he hasn't been happy for a while.

Please keep us in your thoughts, its going to be a rough go of it till he finds a job...I'm totally wishing I was able to make it to Jess's couponing class now...I am going to need every ounce of help i can get.  I feel like I'm going to vomit just thinking about it all and how much my life is about to change...I know its  a good thing and I know that no one will let us go hungry and no one will let us loose the house but it still scares me sh!tless...

Re: Need those Nestie vibes...

  • Oh puke!

    I am so sorry that you are facing this, but I definitely support your decision 100%. Fortunately it is the high season here and more people are hiring now that tourism season is here than there would be in the middle of the winter.

    What line of work is he looking for? I can keep my eyes and ears open.

    Good luck!

  • He has a business degree from Umanie and he really isn't sure what he wants to do with himself...I've sent him a ton of job openings so we will see what happens but if anyone hears of anything in the midcoast area let me know...

  • I will certainly let you know if I see anything.

    Do you want me to send you my notes and the book I got this weekend at the workshop? I won't use the book (I think I've got the skills down and I'm not a book learner) and I took a page of notes. Just drop my an email (nest name at gmail) with your mailing address and I'll send you what I can, if you'd like it.

  • Your husband is the one that works for that crappy hotel co. right? OP? My BIL could only take 3 summers of that crap, bless YH for doing it so long.

    I'm sorry they screwed him. I hope he finds a new, better job soon.

    Yes that would be the company...I knew it was coming, I called it months ago but was hoping I would be wrong.   I've been crying for hours over this whole mess and hope that it works itself out sooner rather than later.

  • It sounds like, in the end, things can only improve and YH will find a better situation.  But I can imagine how stressful and scary the here and now is.  Good luck!!!  I hope YH finds a new job quickly!
