Goodbye for now, my friends ... - rjcj2017 - 04-24-2014 Hey guys, effective tomorrow I am leaving my job, as I am being downsized with a severance package. (Do not worry, this is actually a very good thing. Well, should be or will be eventually.) Sooooo ... since I do the majority of my Beckettness while I'm at work, I will be taking a (hopefully short) break from trading, posting, etc. I have sent a couple of PMs out to members I have pending trades with, and the only other one I had completed I just sent out, so I'm trying to wrap up loose ends tonight. If it's longer than a short break, then, well, I appreciate everything you guys have done for me with all the trades, witty banter and what not. I'll be here tonight, and then I'll talk to you when I talk to you. Later! RJ RE: Goodbye for now, my friends ... - y2hood - 04-24-2014 Good luck and glad to see you're in positive spirits!

It was a final straw kind of thing, time to move on with my life. Thanks man!

I find that odd, but best of luck. Being unemployed is never fun. RE: Goodbye for now, my friends ... - monsterx - 04-25-2014 One of the best things that ever happened to me was getting laid off from a job and being unemployed for a few months. I ended up getting a great job and one that I appreciate greatly. I like to think things happen for a reason. Best of luck to you and hope to see you in the near future!

I work at a newspaper, so the majority of my workload was toward the end of the night, at deadline ... much slower earlier in the day, hence the Beckettness. But yeah, I was wondering if someone might catch that, LOL (04-25-2014, 06:11 PM)monsterx Wrote: One of the best things that ever happened to me was getting laid off from a job and being unemployed for a few months. That's what I am hoping, my good man. I WILL return, with a vengeance! |
