Default Happy New Year to me... - 01-03-2008, 11:47 AM
Sorry I haven't been around much lately...unfortunately things have turned to shit in my neck of the woods.

I lost my job yesterday. Happy Fucking New Year to me.

The company in its infinite wisdom and financial disarray laid off all the customer support people, except for the manager. Me and two other support reps have been shitcanned. Other staff in other departments were let go as well.

Hopefully I can find something else soon. This is priority #1 right now, so I may be even more scarce than I have been in the past few weeks.

Then again, I might have more time on my hands. Who knows.

Anyway, pray for zonah. I'll dance for your enjoyment, clean vacuum cleaner bags, wash dishes...

What? Revenge is the ultimate pleasure, right? So why not make it big right away?

That sucks dude. Hope you get yourself hooked back up to the money tree soon.

You should do some freelance graphic design work - you most definitely have the talent, and I bet you have the core software....
Didnt you say once that you wanted to start doing that for a career?

All the best if we dont hear from you for a while man....

You're a good guy Zoner, you'll get a new job in no time I reckon.

Hope this gif cheers you up a little
