Hey, on the heels of my last post here....
I got laid off today.
I'm still kind of reeling from it. But I was assured by our HR person that my bosses (a husband and wife) had just been so broken up about the 20 people they laid off. I hope they don't cry all the way home to their house in Great Falls (DC people--you know what I mean!) in their BMW and Mercedes.

Oh no, Bunny!
Your H is still employed, though, yes?
What a blow. I'm sorry. I hope you find something soon!
::job dust::
Thanks, guys. My H is still employed, thankfully. We did work together, but I am just thanking our lucky stars that he applied to work in a different department that is safe for now.
Oh I am so sorry. That really sucks.
::hugs::
Is change.gov still accepting resumes?! Maybe you should apply!
I'm so sorry. And I know EXACTLY what you mean.
Years ago, at a good-bye lunch for a receptionist, the owner actually talked about her new Saab.
Anything you can achieve through hard work, you could also just buy.
I am a runner, knitter, scientist, DE-IVF veteran, and stage III colon cancer survivor.
I'm so sorry! I hope you find something else soon--lots of people in this region are still hiring.
I just hired a girl from Brookings and they're looking for someone to replace her (research assistant job), if you're interested I can send you the link. Not that I've met you, but it seems like something you might find interesting.
That would be great! I'd really appreciate it! I think we e-mailed before, but you can e-mail me at nestbunnybean@gmail.com.
Thank you all for all your nice words! As I know I've said before, I hated the job, but I didn't want to leave it like this! I applied for a job this afternoon, and I'm planning to get into substituting in the meantime, since I'm in school to teach anyway.
And maybe now my apartment will be spotless!
I am so sorry BB!!!
I am so sad to hear about this crappy economy hurting E08ers.
(((HUGS!)))
((big hugs))
Lots of job dust your way!!!
Oh no! I'm so sorry! That totally sucks.
If you ever need to chat or grumble about it with someone, let me know.
Thanks! I keep joking about being a SAHW.
Oh no!!!!! I'm so sorry to hear that.
I hope the economy starts to get better. People are losing their jobs left and right.
Oh bunny I'm sorry!

And yes, file for unemployment ASAP!
Thanks everyone! I filed for unemployment today--good times, good times.
