Thread: I got a new job!!

  1. #1

    I got a new job!!

    I gave my 4 hour notice yesterday. LOL! They even tried to talk me into staying but I told her since the mass layoff I don't consider it a stable job. Ya think?! I could have worked all week but after 18 years I didn't feel I owed them any guilt hours. Someone else can sell their now made in China crap.
    I start my new job Monday. QC in a huge shop. A lot of hours but the pay and benefits are worth it. I even get real insurance instead of an HMO and save $85/week on the insurance compared to my old HMO. I'm really nervous about starting all over but I'm super excited to be moving on.

    Oh good for you Dee!! After the way they have been treating anyone, no you sure don't owe them a thing. So cool on you getting better benefits, that it sooo important. Good luck to you.

    Thanks Kathy. It will feel good to be proud of my work again instead of wondering how long my job will last. I will be happy to get a regular paycheck again too. My craft budget was the first thing to go when I had to take the big pay-cut and the loss of hours on top of that.

    Thanks you guys! I held on to that dying job for too long but finally I am back on track. In it's day, I made really good money and all of that and it just took me a little time to realize that I had to move on.

    It sounds like the HAPPY DANCE TIME has started!

    I love it that you gave 4 hours notice--you rock!

    It will be like walking into fresh air to be in a new business!
    Hope it is a great "honeymoon" beginning.
