Sigh...

[dcseain]

My position was eliminated today, Monday 12 Feb 2007. Very generous severance, including 6 weeks pay plus medical through March. More later.

That sucks. I'm sorry to hear it. If your resume is relevant to anything at my company, I'd be happy to submit it for you, but I don't actually know what you do.

I do technical support, and have done so now in English, Spanish, and Portugese. I speake, understand, read and write the 1st two, only read, write, and comprehend the latter - my speaking is primitive still, but improving.

woah... that came out of nowhere

I will wait to hear the rest of the story. but i am so confuzzeled.

A night at the diner i think is in order soon. I saw that you are booked in a reply down lower on this list, but let me know what works for you. *warm hugs and listening ears*

On the brighter side, lunch some time?

*hug*

[dcseain.livejournal.com]

That would be nice, thank you. This week, i'm rather booked. Mayhap next sometime.

[ksatyr.livejournal.com]

That's a deal.

[scruffycritter.livejournal.com]

"Sigh" says it all. Hope you find work quickly and make a profit on change of paycheck author.

[dcseain.livejournal.com]

Thank you, though i'd be content to mantain constancy, though profit would be welcome.

[sharrainchains.livejournal.com]

I am so sorry. ::hug::

[dcseain.livejournal.com]

Thank you.

[ftemery.livejournal.com]

That's a surprise nobody wants! Good luck and I hope you get to enjoy some of the "unplanned vacation"!

[dcseain.livejournal.com]

Thanks. I do hope to spend a day or so at the National Gallery, and now that the Portrait Gallery and American Art are open again, i would like to see them again.

I am sorry to hear it.

*hugs*

[buubala.livejournal.com]

I am very sorry to hear about this as well. *Hug* And once things have settled best wishes on another job that will be more beneficial to you.

[maddogairpirate.livejournal.com]

How completely unexpected. Six weeks severance will hopefully be enough to land a nice new position. Perhaps karma will return the favor in finding you a job as you've helped several others in that area.

You're in my thoughts, big guy. *snug*

[little-bitti.livejournal.com]

Ouch! I'm sorry to hear that. *hugs* I'll be sure to keep my eyes and ears open and let you know if I hear of anything.

[ohio-geek.livejournal.com]

Sorry to hear about that, Seain. I still don't quite get why your position was 'eliminated', to tell the truth. Needless to say, not much got done yesterday after the news broke. =-(.
I'll keep my ears open for anything that might open up.

[melted-snowball.livejournal.com]

Oof. Good luck.

[mergyeugnau.livejournal.com]

Quel suckdog. :( If you send me a copy of your resume I will do some looking through my association channels. There are 1,003 here in DC and all dependent heavily on their databases, websites and email. I can only imagine that a multilingual geek would be some association's wet dream. >>Hugs<<

Oh dear! I hope you find something quickly. I'm so sorry!

I got something else in Columbus yesterday (tech support, irony of ironies), so I should be able to pay you back the loan fairly shortly. But I'm sure you'll find something else soon.

[nosebeepbear.livejournal.com]

oh, the SUCK. *hug*.

[da-lj.livejournal.com]

Gah. What a pain. Hope a new position pops up soon.

I'm sorry to say Welcome to the club. But that is the life of a contractor. I've had some luck with Monster and Dice.

[selki.livejournal.com]

Bleah. Sorry to hear it.

[dmk.livejournal.com]

So sorry! (hugs) Sounds like a halfway-decent package, though. Best of luck in your search.

[quentinor.livejournal.com]

OUCH!!! I hate when that happens!
