Unemployed and Depressed.

Guess who no longer has a job? That's right! Me! Got fired this afternoon, but do you want to know what really grates me? They waited until 5PM today to do it just as I was walking out the door. Just had to put my soul through one last full day of torment, didn't they? It was so nonchalant that it really pissed me off. Apparently, I wasn't a good "fit" with the company. And to top it off, due to the way in which they have classified my termination, I will not be able to collect unemployment. Way to be true winners at life right there. They have the audacity to say that my performance was "unsatisfactory" when I worked my ass off for them, changed things over and over again on every little fucking whim they had. I worked over 200 bloody hours of unpaid overtime in six months! WTF?! I'm totally going to bundle up the ugly company shirts in a bag and stuff them in the mailbox outside the office. Screw them to the rafters, I say. I'm less angry now and more disappointed than I was earlier. At least I'll get to sleep in later tomorrow, but somehow I doubt I'll be sleeping at all tonight.

That makes no sence at all. How does that work? just to weird. I guess every state is differnet, but I thought they all worked about the same.
I'm sorry dear. *hugs*

*hugs* It's because they just don't have the money to pay for everyone at once, so they're having to stagger the unemployment back a few months. Like, for instance, I would have to remain unemployed for four more months before I will be eligible to collect. I wouldn't make it four months without a job, so I guess that's what they're hoping- that the fear of going totally broke will urge people to really ferociously seek another job. However, around here, there are no jobs to be had, which is why I'm heading out of state this coming Friday to hopefully find a better situation.

Well, its why we moved 994 miles from Phoenix, Az to Fort Collins, Co. There is a company up here that David and I are going to go into tomorrow morning to get a job. They are hiring 500 new people, so we'll at least have a job. Only issue is that it's a call center, but it's inbound only, which is good. :)
A job is a job right now. ;)

I wish you all the best luck! I'm hoping that Georgia will offer me more chance to find a job than Tennessee.
