You see there was no job to go to anymore, I was made redundant, my company had let me go,(fools, they'll regret it, whose going to do the things I did for them.........!).
I could not believe it nor could my friends and colleagues.........Me?! Why would they do that?
Well that's what happened. A twist of fate, the heavens conspiring against me for some un-paid debt from a past life maybe?
I don't know, I just don't know.... (or do I?).
It's not just about the money either, which I will very much miss. Who wouldn't I was well paid.
I loved my job and the company that I worked for and they in turn loved me, I thought.
Before I go any further and you stop reading, thinking that this is just some mad man having a good moan about losing his job, let me explain a couple of things.
- Yes I could indeed be mad, but it does depend on your perception.
- No, I won't be moaning about my job loss anymore, (or at least not here, but then I can't promise that I won't fall into the occasional rant as that is part of my nature too).
When I started this blog it was to let loose my anger and frustration. To exorcise a few of my newer demons. But things have taken a strange twist and I find that I am now looking at it from a different view point.
My intention may now be to share with everyone or anyone who wants to read this blog how I am dealing with my life.....without the job that I loved (haha) and for others to talk about how they are getting on, there are a lot of us out there at the moment some are even 'credit crunch' virgins, who in the words of Madonna are, "touched for the very first time".
Maybe, if you are in the same situation you will see things the same way or a little differently too.
At this stage I am not sure how this will go, the blog that is. I have been writing for years but this is the first time that I have offered it up so the format will change as I go along, maybe or it won't.
But I will allow some space for it to change and grow because believe me change IS good!
Ok so some times it grabs us by the scruff of the neck and throws us in the dirt for a little while.
"But if things don't change they will stay the same", that's what an old guy I worked with used to say when I was starting out at sixteen and he was about 200yrs old.
But like so many things that he would say, he was right.........things do need to change, if they didn't then how boring would it all be then?
So, change is good, don't be afraid of it!
