bad news // cross yours fingers for me!!!

So it's official...

I went to work this morning, and they told me that I was laid off. Not fired, though... just laid off. Which means, I can still apply for unemployement, atleast. Yay for that?

I was expecting it, but still... I thought I was going to start bawling my eyes out when she told me. So friggin' stupid... they're going to pay me until last Friday though, because of the doctor's note. Plus any vacation pay they owed me. So I guess it could be worst...

So i went job hunting the whole day today... mainly brought a resumé at 2 places though. 2 placement agencies... one with which I dealt with before (they had gotten me the job at Homburg back in 2007.. remember about that?) and the other one, my dad told me I should go to. So I would atleast have 2 places looking for a job for me, instead of just 1.

The first place gave me an interview to update everything, since it has been 2 years, and then told me they have a client of theirs who's looking for an administrative clerk, and she said she thinks i'm exactly what they're looking for (with the background I have and everything). She couldn't tell me the name of the company until she gives them my resumé, but it would be for a company that sells cars, and it would be full time, monday to friday, starting at $30 000 (which is... $3 500 more a year that I was making at First Canadian Title!). So that's pretty good!! She said she's going to contact me by the end of this week to set up an interview with them, if theyre interested.

The second one, I just walked in after talking with my dad (he suggested that I go) and gave her my resumé... turns out they have something that fits me perfectly, but already 2 people got interviewed, so she wasn't 100% sure if the position had been filled yet (but she doesnt think so). It would be for the government (for Legal Aid)... so I would not only be working for the Provincial Gov. but for a lawyer as well. How sweet would that be?? She contacted the office for me, and sent them my resumé as well. So we'll see! :)

I'm pretty stressed out though... I need a job BAD... like I need to know I have a job by the end of this week. Or else... I don't know what's going to happen. I'm so stressed out... you have no freakin' idea...

PLEASE cross your fingers for me, everyone! I need a miracle!

Aww, I'm sorry you got laid off...Was it because you called in sick and such, or did they just not need you anymore? Good luck getting a new job! My fingers are crossed for you!!!!!
