Default Lost my job today

Ordinarily this is the type of announcement I'd make on Facebook, but I am not ready to talk to all the people who are going to ask a bunch of questions and ask for details. Just don't feel like TALKING.

I really liked this job too. It was temp to perm and they didn't keep me. I'm devastated actually.

I worked in title insurance but the real estate market being what it is led me to a job in title insurance after foreclosure.

I'm so tired of all this. I bought a kit last year to do Pure Romance parties, but when unemployed I couldn't get my head together to do both. Now I'm thinking of nixing looking for a real job and pouring myself into the adult toy biz. It's done in a very tasteful way. My upline is very successful in this - she's won like 3 trips - her latest to Hawaii - but I just feel so incapable of ANYTHING at all. I'm in a fog. Hoping my boyfriend calls tonight because I might pick up the phone for him.

Anyway, just had to tell someone.

Im really sorry to hear that! I lost my job a few months ago and it put me into a major depression. I start my new job on Monday and, although I was sad and hurt when I was made redundant, Im now seeing it as an opportunity to do something new. Id been in my previus job a long time and was 'comfortable'. This is forcing me to leave my comfort zone and do something new - its exciting and scary at the same time!!

I wish you every success in your new business venture. I know a couple of girls who do the same thing - organising adult parties (for women) - and they enjoy it and do very well.

Steph

Sorry to hear about your job loss, our economy is just terrible. I know your BF will cheer you up.

BTW, lots of money in adult toys. Is Pure Romance the one that gives out the little plastic "toys" to taste the "oils"? PM me the web address.

Hopefully you can pick up a job at a retail store for the holidays at least.

Think it as an opportunity to attract better things into your life, and i know it is a crazy thought for some, but you know how sometimes what you think is the WORST thing that could happen actually turns out a blessing? I hope that for you honey. Sorry you lost a job you like, but i hope big and better things await you.

This has definitely been the case before, but I really liked this job.

My brain is spinning and my toy lady upline? She's on her way to Hawaii for 11 days RIGHT NOW! That's a trip she won though I don't think it was for 11 days. She might've added a few days to it or something because I think it was supposed to be for a week originally.

I've got to get my head screwed on straight. Really tough to do right now. I just feel so LOST. I went through this LAST year at this time. Got laid off Thanksgiving week. Was still unemployed when I decided to write pen pals because I had all this time on my hands.

I'm a survivor. I'll be OK. Probably not today though.

I am so sorry I know how bad that has to be.I agree with smiley.It may be a blessing that it happened.You could have got hit by a bus on your way to work tomarow if you were still employed.I know that is pretty narrow,but it could still happen.God never puts anything on your plate that you cant handle.Also with every door he closes he opens another.Sometimes you just have to wait for the open hours to get in the next door

I know. That which doesn't KILL us makes us stronger. And I am a firm believer in "everything happens for a reason". I just really wish I didn't have to be tested NOW.

I went thru 3 months of unemployment LAST year - December thru February. It was ridiculous I don't even want to tell you. I just barely feel up to the task of job hunt right now, KNOWING full well that there is next to nothing out there in my field which would mean taking a lesser job making dirt money. That's why I think I want to focus on the toys. With that I can go as far as I want to and as soon as I get the ball rolling with my first party, it'll be way better from there. I always had a problem nailing down that first one, but I always did really well AT the parties.

My upline is in CT and my bf is in NY. Thinking about making a drive up so that I can WATCH her in action (b/c I never have, my sister referred her to me) and get some time in with the bf. I just have to wait for her to get back from HAWAII from the trip she won off the company. I signed on under the best. She's a great producer so I'll be learning from the best. Just have to wait for her to get back.

Thanks for all the support.

Hi, not sure if this will make you feel better but:
I have been fired from two different Continents.
Europe and North America.
But now still have a good job here in cold Canada.
Tomorrow is another day.
