Default My turn, to embrace the suck.

Well in a succession of folks, now it's my turn. Although it's not due to the floundering economy, but more due to a parent unit, trying try get their 'dam dirty paws' in on the child unit's contracting stuff. So my contract was canceled and today is the day. I've cleaned out my desk drafted up my "take this job and shove it" email, only problem is I honestly really enjoy working here, and probably won't send it. My contractor boss is going shoulder deep in the crap with me to try and help me find a job quickly and along the same pay lines. I've got zero problems getting back to the farm, or hitting home depot or lowes. Just a matter of paying bills I reckon. Well it blows, but I reckon so does the wind, some point its gonna stop. So wish me luck, payday is friday. Embrace the suck.

never easy to lose a job but even worse when it's something you enjoyed doing. I'm sure you'll find your way into something bigger and better bro...keep your head up.

Yeah, don't send that email. That's a good idea. Won't help anything unless you hope to burn some bridges.
You'll blow into another job. They happen. Hopefully you'll enjoy the next one as much as you have this last one.
