Of course you're nervous and worried. Some things just suck by mere anticipation, even if they never come to pass or the event isn't nearly as bad as what precedes it.

However ... you're an awesome lady with an awesome life. Don't let THEM ruin your evening tonight. It's YOURS.

FoggyGoggles - 2011-12-09 3:44 AM Sometimes I wish I was a cop...

Huh. Why?

I just seem to find myself witnessing some seriously stupid things on occasion. Last time I was in Dallas I was on the freeway driving about 75 mph when a guy flew past me along the shoulder on a sport motorcycle. He was well over 100 mph, but to make matters worse he has a girl clinging to him as he's weaving between cars.

Every dang day in Florida. Cops won't get him (They won't chase over 120mph I think), but Darwin will.

i thought i was ok...but i'm getting worried about tomorrow. i have never been let go from an employer. what does one say when being let go?

besides bye. Undecided

seriously. what do i say? i'm sorry? i wish things could have worked out?

wait, that's what one says when breaking up.

It's happened to me twice.

IF IT HAPPENS, just be professional. They probably won't give you much of an opportunity to talk, because there is nothing good for you to say. In general, they'd rather take the awkwardness so that it doesn't fall on you. Just be professional about it, and listen to what they have to say, and at the end, say whatever is appropriate. "Thank you for the opportunity" works. "I understand it's just business" (if that's the case). "Eff you, arsehole" if the situation calls for it.

Remember, this is ONLY IF IT HAPPENS. I'm still hoping it doesn't!

ok. sounds good.

i was thinking...''thanks! this is the best news i've heard in forever!''

no? hee hee

i like J's reply above. ha

why am i nervous. this has been a long time in the making.

The adult thing to do is to not burn any bridges and just say thanks and leave, remember it is not easy for most people to fire others anyways.

 

Now the TAN thing to do is something completely opposite of the adult thing to do!

Happened to me THREE times.  All economy based.  Each one was different.

The first two, I was angry and I'm not sure I like the place anyway.  I sort of just acted professionally, probably did some "glaring" and was overly quiet.

The last one, I REALLY like the place, and they liked me, so I told them that IF they get to the point they are hiring again, and IF I'm still looking, I would love to come back.  I also understood that it's business and I had no hard feelings.

I guess it's sort of situational.  But in all cases, there wasn't that much conversation.  There was a procedure.  They tell you, give you an envelope, probably have you talk to HR to deal with insurance and other things.  Packing is always awkward.  And of course, telling your co workers, since most of them don't know untill they see you packing...

It's not fun.  But you seem like a strong good person, so you things will work out for you, I'm sure.

Warning: attention whor3 psycho chick weirdo statement/question to follow. (Yeah, gee, why bother saying that NOW ... ha).

Every single one of my serious relationships has begun with the guy already being in a serious relationship.

There is one exception. It was his first relationship.

I wonder why this is? This kind of disturbs me. Maybe it means I have a conscience.

But it disturbes you AFTER the fact.  Which in itself, is distrubing.

But hey, it takes two to play!
