- Great News! The heartless bastards at the company I've been
- contracting for just decided that they don't need me (and a few
- others) anymore, so they cancelled my 1 year contract only 3 months
- into the deal.
-
- I've got no severance pay, no money in the bank and a 4 month old
- daughter to feed and clothe. Since I've got no money, I'll probably
- lose my house shortly after I miss next month's mortgage payment.
-
- I love getting laid off exactly one week before Christmas. I can see
- their point, though: To hell with the people, the shareholders must
- get their dividends! Makes sense, right?
-
- BTW, I am a good Christian, so this is probably God's way of telling
- me that I should kill myself so my wife and kid can get the insurance
- money.
-
- Merry Christmas, Mr. Scrooge!
-
- Ta Ta!
