mrfurious Posted October 18, 2007 Report Posted October 18, 2007 Yesterday i lost my job, i was working in engineering just learning the job, my cousin was the boss, basicly i was working 50-60 hours a week and was not getting paid properly, so when i had a meeting to clear the air i was told to leave.!! just so happens that he had just spent £40'000 on a new car. I'll have to search again now, proble is i dont have any skills like plumbing, electricals etc. guess i could stack the beans at a local supermarket. i would love a job i could do from home in an ideal world.

Chefhawk[501st] Posted October 19, 2007 Report Posted October 19, 2007 Mate that is serious bad news,,, really sorry to hear that. If i lived closer i would take you out for a pint or two. Life can be hard at times, but im a firm believer that things happen for a reason. sometime in the future you will look back and think that they did you a big favour. Ive been made reduntent in a job before,,, it was horrible at the time(in fact it was one of the worst feelings) also When i split up with my wife and kids i thought it was the end of the world, but now im a lot happier and i more or less can do what i want, when i want. (still see the kids every wednesday and other weekends) Hope you can see the light at the end of the tunnel dude. If i can help in any way, you know where to find me. keep your chin up son cheers mate Quote
Sgt-Lynch Posted October 19, 2007 Report Posted October 19, 2007 I'm with Chefhawk.... things happen for a reason, as indeed, silly as that may seem when things go bad. It sucks, but I'm sure everyone goes through it at some point in their life. L. Quote
HPDblues[TK] Posted October 19, 2007 Report Posted October 19, 2007 I am very sorry to hear about your situation. Take care bro and like FITZ, I'll be praying for a brighter future ahead for you and the Mrs. Aloha, T Quote
TK:TK Posted October 19, 2007 Report Posted October 19, 2007 Your cousin fired you? Amazing. What a jerk. The upside is that you no longer work for such a jerk. There are a lot better bosses out there. Best of luck... Quote
Jester Posted October 19, 2007 Report Posted October 19, 2007 i'm real sorry about your news adrian, but im sure that somthing better will turn up it may take a bit of time but with a loving partner by your side i'm sure you'll go on to better thing's. maybe not at first but somthing will turn up. Maybe talking to a few of your contacts will be able to help you out with a new job or point you in the right direction of one. All the best of luck. Quote
Laspector[TK] Posted October 19, 2007 Report Posted October 19, 2007 I know how you feel bro, a couple months ago the same thing happened to me--Walked into work one Monday morning, was called into the office and laid off along with 2 other guys..I was a department supervisor--they said I made too much money and they had to cut overhead. Ain't that some SH!T?....Been on lots of interviews, I seem to be overqualified for menial work and under qualified for higher paying jobs....Unemployment runs out in about a month, hope I don't have to sell my armor to pay bills.

huttman[TK] Posted October 19, 2007 Report Posted October 19, 2007 The empire will never turn your back on you This can only make you stronger, hang in there bro Quote
mrfurious Posted October 19, 2007 Author Report Posted October 19, 2007 thanks for all the positive support guys, it helps. i went out on a jobsearch today, problem i have here is that its a really, really small area. Not many Jobs about. Quote
Chefhawk[501st] Posted October 19, 2007 Report Posted October 19, 2007 hi dude, you could try signing up with a few agency's for work or have a look on the net ......maybe this one might help. There are other sites out there. clickity click cheers Quote
probie_trooper Posted October 24, 2007 Report Posted October 24, 2007 Hey bro Stiff upper lip and all. I hope your cousins car has a tree fall on it before it is insured. Like allhave said this is a great opprotunity for something to happen, that guy that said when one door closes another opens wasnt lying. It may seem like life sucks right now,but it will get better. Remember we are all pulling for you. If you ever need to chat us up feel free. Quote
TK-9805 Posted October 24, 2007 Report Posted October 24, 2007 You definitely have my prayers! I cannot imagine having all that happen at once, but things can, and will, get better. I have been laid off twice since college, so I can sympathize with you there. It feels bad at the time, but bigger and better things are ahead for you! I just know it! If you EVER need a friend, even though many mile separate us, just know I, and the rest of the troops are there for you! Quote
mrfurious Posted October 24, 2007 Author Report Posted October 24, 2007 thanks once again my friends, I havnt managed to find a job as yet, i thought i had found a job at a pc repair store but the wages are simply not enough to pay my mortgage etc. Looks like i might have a few months of waiting, and a bleak winter.
