Still sinking in

A week ago Sunday I was called behind our work trailer to the "conference room" by my company supervisor, Dave. Dave told me that things were slowing down and that my job position was no longer needed.

Long story short, I had only been moved into this job position for a week.

I was hired on to be the documentation specialist / historian. I was taking pictures of the equipment that came into decon that were to be cleaned.

Short version of the story, I was brought to days for a hot minute because of some miscommunication (kinda like the telephone game that was played when you were a kid). It was said I was not performing my job correctly but I was... anyways, the night time supervisor wanted to move me to logistics to better use my skills.

So when I was moved back to nights I was put in the logistics position. (The night time supervisor who wanted me in logistics went back to California while I was on days to a great job offer.)

Now, a week later, several companies have been let go including the one I worked for as well as all but 10 night shift employees.... So....

I would have been out of a job but that last week of pay would have been nice.

So here I am, standing jobless, not wanting to go back to Jackson just yet, and not sure where my next paycheck will come from to pay all my bills!

But a couple of positive things out of this....

Ashley and one of her "normals" Lisa are living in my house to help me pay the house note and give them a place to stay.

I got a job with Liberty National Life Insurance. (Yes, I have a job now! But it scares me because it is a commission only job!!!!)

I am still looking at jobs online and applied for the Best Buy down here in hopes of getting hired on for at least seasonal work so I know I will have one steady income.

So for now, I am still trying to let my quick departure from my night shift family to sink in....
