Insane in the Membrane

Let Go (Free Falling II) + Plug

Thu May 15, 2008, 12:44 AM
I guess that is a polite way of saying we like you as a person, but we no longer have a place for you in our company. A Holiday Inn Franchise.

I was hired with minimal experience for a junior maintenance position. The original Chief Engineer Charles hired me knew this, he wanted to be the one to train me himself, but he quit about a month or so into my employment. Next up was Jeff, he taught me a lot (He didn't have to) that helped me through, until he was fired. The new guy Ron kept me around until after my first anniversary with the company. But, apparently I did have enough experience for him so he let me go.

On the bright side they said that they would not contest unemployment.

But jobs are hard to come by in Tyler, unless you know someone. I am glad for one thing I'm always paranoid and have some savings squirreled away.

I am also putting in a plug for [link] in behalf of :iconpaullell:

That company seems to have a problem with keeping people employed anyhow. Look on the bright side; you outlasted two Chief Engineers.

Do not fear the dark. Fear what it hides.
Aw, man! Sorry to hear that. Sounds like the place was sorta churning through people, there.
yup still it is hard to find a job locally.

I always found "let you go" to be insulting. As if they were holding you captive, and they were being generous.
The last time it was said to me, it was by the companies owner, against the wishes of the local manager who had employed me. He did it so he could give a mate's son a job.

If you want to finish a job, it is apparently necessary to start it at some time.
It's always hard to find a job, let alone keep it.

My Website: Atelier Libertatum go and have a look, please?
Aw David... Sorry to her that :( I hope you luck out on a new job soon... Hopefully now that you have at least some experience to go with your training...
owwie, job loss is never an easy thing to cope with. definitely glad to hear you squirreled away an emergency cushion, know far too many people who never thought of that until it was too late.

best of luck in the job search, as others have said, luckily the training you've gotten with this last one will make finding it's successor easier.

also *hugs* because i know i find even platonic semi-anonymous internet hugs to be comforting, and i suspect that any little bit'll help.
Dunno the reason they let me go is that I wasn't apparently learning fast enough...Sure I'm still a little green but I'm not as almost clueless as I was when i started but I doubt employers will look at it that way.
