O/T Made redundant tomorrow and really quite sad.

tiggywinkle, 11 February, 2010 at 21:24 Posted on Planning 0 7

No need to reply but I am just feeling so sad and upset. I get made redundant tomorrow from my job where i have been for 7 years and a quarter of my life. I am going to miss the poeple so much, plus havent got another job yet despite about 100 applications. They good news is though my hubby has agreed to let me try to make a full time go of my own business. However, as much as this cheers me I really do feel so sad, it is like losing someone close.

Sorry to waffle, just needed to say it really.

    It's so hard when you leave somewhere you love through no choice of your own x

    But every cloud.... focus all your energy on your own business and make something that you can be proud of!

    Good luck hunni xxx

    Awww poor you... it's an awful thing to happen to anyone and at this difficult time too where the job market is very slow. Keep in touch with those colleagues that mean something to you - as friends. I myself have been in your position and its not nice, as it turned out it was for the better as I was unhappy anyway but it was still a shock and I had many work colleagues that were friends. I now realise who those friends were and they still keep in touch now and ask how business is doing. I made around 60 applications and had many rejections which does knock your confidence. Now I'm so happy as I too run my own business alongside my wonderful husband and it is very rewarding and I just get sheer job satisfaction as well as making people happy with their wedding dvds ? It helps when you love weddings lol.

    I wish you every success with your business - make a go of it - why line someone else's pocket when you have the business there already!! Us small businesses need to stick together and help each other with advice on marketing etc ? keep in touch and let us know how you're getting on.

    Good luck - you can do it!!!!

    Sorry to hear that Vicki, best of luck, hopefully this is a blessing in disguise and you'll do fantastically well in your own business.

    So Sorry to hear that. Our dept at work has been threatened with redundancy through take overs loads of times, and I'd be gutted if I was in your shoes, But like your Hubby said, make a go at your own business I'm sure it'll be worth it!!?
