First off, I would like to say how proud I am of my son who's team played awesome in their tournament this weekend. The got farther than they have ever gotten before and only lost in a tie breaker. Awesome!
That was the good news portion of this blog. Now on to the bad. We sent off our letter to Jennifer and Scott. They asked for a meeting. We met today at 1pm and they let me go. They said theat they had needed us to move faster on the sale and they just couln't afford to keep me. I am now sans job.
I have cried all day, I can't seem to get my self to move past that. I was proud of what I had accomplished at this job. I am smart enough to know that evrything happens for a reason and something better will eventually come along, but right now I am devastated and scared. My former bosses handled this whole thing very (for lack of a better word) shitty. They have even offered to pay me until the end of the month if I will be available to answer questions for the next week. I am not feeling terribly charitable. I know I should take the offer because we need the money, but damnit, screw them. I have worked my butt off for this store and I was proud of that. Now I worry we will lose the house if I don't find work soon. Not to mention Christmas for our kids.
I let all my employees know and they are shocked and upset as well. I don't know what else to say.....

These people sound like right proper assholes. Vindictive SOB's. I hope you find work soon and we can all sit back and talk about how much better you are than when you were working for them. Contact Texas Workforce Commision asap. Maybe you can get unemployment for being let go without cause.
Yeah, Jeff says I should be able to get unemployment easily. It apparently takes quite a while, so I should go ahead and apply now just in case I don't find something else soon. I know myself and I need a few days to wrap my brain around this.
