I'm really sorry about this Jorath, and I hope that you find a new job that is much more enjoyable to you.

I once got laid off, I was washing dishes in a pub. They sacked me. How low did i feel?

Thanks guys, for your kind words, encouragement and the drinks... [img]smile.gif[/img]
I feel better

And Lavindathar, I got layed of from a pub too few years ago... about 30 seconds after I quit... I came to the boss and said I'm quitting, and she handed me a resignation letter... that was pretty funny.
Man there was another job I hated, almost as bad as my current one. A drunk guy actually asked me if the only stairs in the building was the stairs to the second floor...duhhh.

Look at it positively, Jorath - you've left a job you don't like. Now you have to back yourself to find something that you do like. Life's too short to be in a job you're not enjoying. It's give you a lot more motivation to find something that you want.

Sorry to hear about losing your job, Jorath.

Keep looking, I'm sure you'll eventually find something. (Who knows, you might have already found something even while reading this!)

Sorry to ear that Jorath, I know what it feels like, I'm a job hunter too. I handed in my resignation notice on Friday (I was required to give them a 3 months notice). So, I'm done on April 30th. Hope you find something that you like soon [img]smile.gif[/img]
