Take a little time off to calm down, do not appear panicked when looking for a job or desperate even if you are.

Sorry to hear it.
I know three people who have had their positions eliminated in the past 2 days. I wonder what recent event could spark a frenzy of job cuts. |

Well this story has a happy ending, I start my new job tomorrow. Being on unemployment for 3 months is not fun. I missed having a routine. November and December were especially rough because most places weren't hiring until after the holidays. So glad I had money put away to tide me over until my unemployment got approved. It got pretty deflating at times. At one point I got rejected from three straight places I interviewed for, not to mention all the places wanting me to start at $11/hr. There were so many times I bombed on my interview because I was so stressed out about finding work I couldn't sleep the night before. Anyway I'm ready to start my new job.

They asked me if I'd be willing to start tomorrow and I said yes. I've had more than enough time sitting around my apartment when I wasn't going to interviews and job fairs.

Congrats, man! In today's job market, 3 months ain't even bad (though I'm sure it felt like it was).
On an unrelated note, this thread gave me a little appreciation for morphius's addition of the start date to the lounge view. Instead of thinking "Oh, crap, someone else got laid off," I thought "Hey...this was bumped, so I bet it's good news." |
