Good for you to try to control only what you can control. There’s not much you can do.

And remember, you may have been laid off twice, but you’ve also landed three(+) jobs. Job hunting sucks, but you know how to do it and succeed.

My fingers are crossed for you!

You’ve gone through a lot, girly. But you’ve gone through it so gracefully, and you make me proud.

I’m sorry. I can only imagine how scary that is.

I’m so sorry. that is so stressful, especially near christmas. i hope it works out. of course, when one door closes, another opens, but you’re right-it doesn’t make you feel any better about the situation! i know the feeling of job searching….been doing it for the past 3 and a half months, and it is driving me INSANE. it is so lame. nothing like a job search to make you feel about an inch tall, i swear! good luck to you.

That stuff always sucks sooooo much. I feel like the worst part is not knowing what the hell is going to happen. It’s out of your control, though, so try to concentrate on the things that ARE in your control … like, you know, looking hot and making men stumble over themselves in your wake

I’ll be thinking of you lady. And sending you warm thoughts of cold beer.

It’s got to be very, very scary… A huge “re-org” happened where I work — about two years before I started. My co-workers talk about how painful of a time it was, even when they made the cuts. Just so tough.

Whatever comes, you will get through it somehow. You always manage. And we’re here for ya.

First off, we all know that if Al Bundy had boobs, his hand would be up his shirt, not down his pants. Second, my husband has been through two company buyouts (we are currently in the middle of the second one), so I know how you feel. You have to do your job, but you don’t see the point if they are possibly going to let you go. All you can do is update your resume, take a peek at what else is out there and hope for the best. If anything, you can get a job in Washington and hang out with moi. )
