Just got let go from my employer a couple hours ago. No notice was given, I was told right when i got back from running an errand for the office. I understood that business was slow, but damn. My boss told me that i could take a two week (unpaid) vacation until Jan. 2 because business was slow, but i said i had no plans of going out of town. He said I could use him as a good reference, but in the manner and timing of how he told me, don't care for him much. If anyone knows of any decent job openings, pls let me know. Thanks
You can't really blame the messenger. It sucks, and I've been through it as well. Hell, a lot of us have gone through it/are going through it. What's your background?
Terrible timing due to the holidays. Like Matt has already asked, give us some background information and we can all keep any eye/ear out.
Well I started in May without any training. Since then I've gotten the company more than 15 bid invites from general contractors for hotel bids to provide bathroom construction. We couldn't even keep up with production if we went for half of those. I sold items to 99% of our walkins too. I did sales and marketing but I'm leaving that field. If anyone has experience with Google sketch, quickbooks, sales, bilingual is a plus, and marketing, they'll be seeking someone in January
Don't go on unemployment, or you won't be really welcomed on here. Ask me how I know. As far as work. My place just slowed down, busy season is over. Not sure what your profession is, and your situation, if your willing to do hard labor, etc.... Check with TRC staffing services, they always have shitty jobs on the line.
A lot of working people viewed it as if they supported you month to month. Maybe I was just given hell, or didn't notice the sarcasm. Anyways bud, gl on finding another job. They're out there, its just matter of how badly you want it.
"A lot of working people viewed it....." And in reality, a lot of people don't know that the employer pays for it, at least a big chunk of it. Their ignorance gets the best of them.
Sorry to hear about the job loss, like most said, especially around this time of year. I'll keep a look out and see if I can find anything.
I've been reading everyone's post and I appreciate the positive feedback. I'm not too worried but will be checking if you guys post any openings. I'm in the Marietta/Kennesaw area for any openings you know of.
wow, sorry for the loss. stay positive and look forward. utilize the time well and look at it as an opportunity to explore for something you really want to do.
