Bad day today for me. I was dismissed from my job. It was a well constructed dismissal. I saw it done to others and am not entirely surprised as the company has lost 2 major clients and retrenchment is on the cards for many, especially the few remaining that are my age. However it hurts and when I stop and think I feel the panic flutter frantic in my chest, Hugs and prayers needed here too, please. Christine, Johannesburg

oh sweetie , I 'm so sorry. Tomorrow a new door will open for you. perhaps a better one!!

Thanks!

Christine so sorry to hear that you were retrenched. I hope you find something else soon. Will keep you in my prayers. It is very sad that so many people are been paid off. My older sister also went through this, she was with the company for 35 years, then she found another job and was only working for 11 months and the company closed done. She was very lucky and then got contract work which ended on Friday. She had sent her CV out to so many and nothing came up. Our prayers were answered. She went for an interview on Thursday and got the job to start next week.
So just keep on trying. Something will come up. Hugs Yvonne

I am trying to be positive, but It is scary. Maar so gaan dit. Ek bly hoop en vertrou

Dear Christine - I am so terribly sorry that you have been retrenched. I hope they have reimbursed you well. My youngest daughter was retrenched last year and it took her 8 months to find another job. Times are very hard, especially with all the terrible news we are getting at the moment. My thoughts are with you and I hope you get something soon. Do not give up as I am sure there is work out there for you. Big hugs Sarah (Knysna)

It does seems to be all over the place.

so sad to hear this. It seems to be a trend all over the world. Our new state leader just sacked 2000 public workers from Hospitals and transport and where ever else he can think of. He has only been in power less than 6 months. Some very seniour personel and heads of departments were notified by E-mail that they were out. What a "NICE " way to do it. He is a rat. Queensland is not a happy place at the moment.. Hugs Joyce

Thanks for the hugs and prayers, Thought I would have a lie in this morning...but guess what? Wide awake and raring to go bright and early....Murphy's Law

Sorry to hear that. Be positive. I like the phase- when one door closes another one opens.

positive is the one word that really strikes a chord...I was actively involved in HIV testing and counselling throughout Southern Africa, and I feel a need to get back to that.

So sorry to hear this. I have been through it far too many times, through no fault of my own. Glad now that I am retired and it isn't a worry any more.
Just remember when one door closes another opens and usually a better opportunity comes along. I hope so for you.
Hugs Jerri

Go for it girl !!

I am so sorry. So many of us know exactly what you are going through. Have faith and you will find that what you need will come to you -sometimes from the most unexpected sources. Everything will work out for you and you will be surprised at how strong you are.
Hugs and prayers

Faith and a sure knowledge that I am where I am supposed to be.. hugs

Sorry to hear of your predicament. I know the feeling well. Hopefully it will mean that God has other plans for you. I know when it happened to me I was at a loss. Then in about 3 months I received a wonderful opportunity to work at home and make decent money doing so. So I will pray for you that God has closed a window but will open another door for you soon. Hugs, Mary
