I have been playing grandpa for the last week. When I went back to work today I found out that I got laid off last Thursday. Me and 84 others. My old job wants me back so I will have to give them a call tomorrow and see what they offer. It was a nice break and I made a lot of new friends and life goes on.
 
Dale, nothing I can say can make it better. I only hope all works out for you. It is a disease that seems to be going around. Hope contacts with past job work out. Best of luck my friend.
 
Nasty way to lose your job!

I was once 'downsized via a voicemail message, while I was on day seven of a twelve day road trip. Then, when I tried to call the boss to get more info, I found out that my company credit cards and calling cards had already been cancelled. Needless to say, I had a few kind words to say when I got back (on day eight).

Only 'good' thing that came out of it, though, was that the Board of Directors fired the boss about a week later, and had him escorted off the premises - right out of the Board meeting! Maybe a couple of my phone calls did some good...
