Who has a 4 week old, sleep deprivation AND JUST GOT LAID OFF?! This gal!
At 630 last night the HR woman called me at him while my DD was crying her face off to politely inform me they lost their biggest client and I no longer had a job to come back to from mat leave. And while I semi-predicted this I can't believe that they would call someone with A NEWBORN to be all hey you don't have a job or benefits past this month. The best part? She said that when I am done with leave I should FEEL FREE TO APPLY IF I SEE ANYTHING I AM INTERESTED IN. Really?! Seriously?!? What in the effing effers are you smoking?!
Thankfully the babe is on the Hubs insurance. We're going to look into putting me on his bennies or buying separate. We will be fine but the thought of looking for a job and caring for a newborn is a bit daunting. Anyone else looking for a job at this point? Any tips?
Re: Just got laid off (rant/vent/AW)
I did want to make a comment about this part, something for you to consider:
I really wouldn't take this as a bad thing. To me, this means that they value you as an employee and think that you do a good job and would be willing to rehire you if possible.

On top of that I lost my job when I was 6 mos pregnant. I will be looking for work at some point but for now am focusing on the babe!!
I am a firm believer in things happening for a reason - so I hope it works in your favor eventually!!!
@carisue143 - that's awful! I am so glad your SO was able to negotiate his reduction. I hope you're able to find a great job when you're ready.
Thanks for listening to my rant and the support guys!!!
