Nightmare!

Well my time has come. I got laid off! I joined the banwagon of thousands of Americans that have lost their job. Not too proud of it. I knew the time was coming soon since I work for a construction company and things aren't looking that great for construction. Although, I knew my days were close to being counted, I didn't want to look for another job because I wanted my nice little check that came along with a lay off versus no check with a quit. Get it? So when my boss called me into his office today, I already knew what he was going to tell me. I cried like a sucker! I have never gotten fired or laid off in my life. I felt rejected. I have been with this company for about 5 years so my office was like my little home. I had soooo many personal things in there. It took a while to clean out my office but my friend helped me. I cried some more. and some more. and then some more. And then once I called my hubby, I cried more. When I saw him and he hugged me, I cried even more. I was a crying mess!!! lol. But I feel so much better because I of course have to look at the bright side of things. Now this opens the door of opportunity for me to get a job in my field. I have a degree in Psychology and I am not using it. I needed that push to get out of my comfort zone and start my new life. :)
