The Madness Has Hit Its Peak X-(

I am currently looking for a new job.

Apparently, I was chosen as the sacrificial lamb for the COO's recent power trip.

Looking for anything (other than food service) that does not require a College degree. Had I not made so much money last year in overtime, I could get financial aid and would just go to school full-time. But since that is not the case I will need to work for the next year, making enough to pay my bills and move in w/ my folks until my income level drops enough to qualify for financial aid.

Thanks for any help you might be able to provide.

 

Sorry to hear it, Zoo. Good luck to you, mon ami.

 

[face_shocked] holy crap. those fools!!
I'll let you know if I hear anything.

I cant think of anything else I could do, but if there is anything you need - I'm on it.

 

so sorry to hear about your troubles. if you need anything let me know or the other Jen, Zoo

sending lots of your way

 

Send me your resume ASAP. I might be able to help you...

 

WOW that is crazy. Now they will have to hire 2 or 3 people to do what you did. Those silly people.

 

Good Luck Jennifer, I will keep my ears and eyes open! Not much going on at the State these days with all the budget cuts.....

 

In the process, I've lost my address book (since my Palm went haywire last night). So, please send all pertinent info to me via PtrsonsZOO@hotmail.com

 

Zoo, have you looked into getting financial aid anyway? "Change of status" such as losing a job can change whether you're able to get assistance.

 

Damn, that's terrible! What were they *thinking*???

You definitely have my moral support; I wish I could offer more, but I'm not very experienced at the job hunting thing.

 

Going in tomorrow to talk to my advisors.

My Dad tells me that this may be the push I needed to just go for it. They are having my brothers get the basement ready for me this weekend. I think my parents are actually looking forward to me being there. I just wish I was

 

Man, that just sucks!

 

Least yu got family, kid! Knowing yu, I bet it'll be a short haul to a better deal, ZOO.......no sweat, Boss.

 

So who do you want me to take out for you Jen?

I'm sorry about hearing what they did to you. But just remember, they will have bad karma

 

That totally sucks, Jen!



I can't believe it, after all the OT you've done and all the traveling and stuff. I wish I had any leads, but do not. Unless you want to replace me here in PHX.

But I think Tim and the rest of the troops here would kill me if I plucked you away to Phoenix.

 

Thanks everyone.

I am really going to try and turn this into something positive. I'm going to finish up my lease here, move in w/ my folks, probably sign on at Volt for temp work, until something else comes along and look into starting school full-time in the summer. Maybe this is the push I needed to finally get my degree and move on.

I truly appreciate all of your support.

 

Your head is in the right place, keep it high!

 

did alison say damn ???

 

LOL

 

Damn, that's terrible! What were they *thinking*???

Yep, she did, I don't even know her and I find it rather shocking!


btw, not only did I learn how to copy text, but bold as well HA! I may be old, but I CAN learn new tricks!

 

<defensively> It was bad news! I was upset for Zoo! <goes off to hide in a corner>

 

Damn, that was funny

 

Alison - I think it has more to do w/ the fact that you have never raised your voice over 1 or 2 decibels at a meeting. I don't think they were expecting such a voval display from you

Very approriate display, mind you, just unexpected.

 

i just didnt expect it . now i know better .
