Nay, where do you find these things?

I'm just happy that I made it through another day of work unscathed. I found out this morning that ALL of production was layed off yesterday - ALL of production (with the exception of supervisors and management, of course).

Nay, I've seen that GIF before. I saved a copy of it from Photobucket, I believe. Here's another one I saved (I put the picture as a link to protect the innocent and decent)...

I've succumbed, like the sucker that I am, to Alexander McCall Smith and his vivid imagination. No #1 is underway.

Nay....I'm worse. I know NOTHING about Robert Burns. I'm a terrible fan of G's! I'm so ashamed!

(lol)

On another note....

HELENA! Duuuuude!

You going to Philly to give him your script?

Something random:

I am now unemployed.

Subject: Re: Say something random about you (Part 1) Fri Feb 06, 2009 1:06 pm

Frigging hell. Is there anything we can do to help?

BIG HUGS

DK, I am so sorry. Please know that we are here for you! I'll listen whenever you want to vent.

Subject: Re: Say something random about you (Part 1) Fri Feb 06, 2009 5:47 pm

I don't know how I feel right now. I'm going between bouts of hurt, worry, numbness, and anger. I'm PO'd that the company I worked for made me all of these promises and lured me away from a stable position I held for 10 years, only to drop me like a hot potato when the going got tough and they didn't want to pay me anymore.

Arseholes.

And I'm doubly hurt and angry that my father somehow feels it's my fault that this happened to me, as if I'm being punished. No, I'm not a perfect church going Christian, but I try my best to treat people right and not hurt them. I'm hardworking, honest, and ethical...why is that such a bad thing?

Subject: Re: Say something random about you (Part 1) Fri Feb 06, 2009 6:56 pm

Is that what your father says to his parishioners when they come to him for comfort and solace?

I thought only the Jews and Catholics had historic guilt heaped upon their collective heads. You know that whole "You killed Jesus!" "No, you did!" thing.

PM DK.

Subject: Re: Say something random about you (Part 1) Fri Feb 06, 2009 7:09 pm

I saw that...Nay! Shocked

In all honesty, dad really wants me to 'get back to God', and I'm not saying he's wrong. But I don't get why he feels the need to put a guilt trip on me right now, of all times. I don't think God draws people to Him through guilt...I thought it was done through love. Personally, I would never want someone to stay with me out of guilt or obligation, and I don't think God does either.

I just found out another one of my friends got laid off. He just emailed me this afternoon (though I think his is temporary). In all honesty, I wouldn't be surprised if the entire company goes belly up before this is all over. If that be the case, then the ones who got laid off are the ones who have it better, because at least we get 60 days of pay. Trust me, my company would not have done that willingly. The LAW demands they do so. How ironic. Smile

For those who need it ...

Subject: Re: Say something random about you (Part 1) Sat Feb 07, 2009 10:03 am

I'm so sorry to hear your news, DK. Don't you ever, no matter who it is, let anyone lay a guilt trip on you. God does not punish people and God had nothing to do with you're being laid off. Your stupid employers made wrong choices and their employees are suffering because of them. There are no words to try to make you feel better. Just know that I'm thinking of you.

Subject: Re: Say something random about you (Part 1) Sat Feb 07, 2009 10:14 am

Thanks again, everyone!

I'm watching the local news right now, and word has it that 90% of the employees were laid off. At this point, I'm wondering if the company itself will even survive.

Subject: Re: Say something random about you (Part 1) Sat Feb 07, 2009 4:53 pm

Big hugs to you, Donna. Wish there was something I could do for you. I'm going to keep the faith that bigger and better things are waiting for you. Stay strong, girl. Love you lots. I love you

Random: I have burnt lips and jet lag. Just got home from Mexico. Had the time of my life, but it's back to the really world now.

Subject: Re: Say something random about you (Part 1) Sat Feb 07, 2009 5:20 pm

Welcome back.

I'm drinking a chocolate beer and trying to forget my troubles.

Yes, I said CHOCOLATE beer. It's actually quite good.

Subject: Re: Say something random about you (Part 1) Sat Feb 07, 2009 5:30 pm

I had a chocolate beer before and found it to be on the bitter side. Maybe you found a better brand. Enjoy!

Subject: Re: Say something random about you (Part 1) Sat Feb 07, 2009 6:14 pm

How was Mexico, Bird? Tell all.

Just finished my 6kms before breakfast and saw a slapworthy sight along the way. A little punk was standing on one side of the road while what looked like his girlfriend walked barefoot across the road in front of my bike. As I drew nearer, I saw what she was walking towards - shoes in a ditch. His face was sullen and a bag and wallet was on the ground at his feet. My guess is the little moron had just been dumped (or had a huge shoe throwing tantrum) and was making his girlfriend pick up her shoes! If I had just raised my left hand from the bike, I could have connected with his sour face. Should I??

My thoughts EXACTLY, DK! *Big hugs*

Subject: Re: Say something random about you (Part 1) Mon Feb 09, 2009 11:33 am

Sorry to change the subject but.....I'M BAACK!!!

The cruise was fantastic, the weather was fantasic, the food was everywhere. The days at sea were ruff as hell as both coming and going we ran into storms. Not to worry tho neither my husband nor myself got sea sick. My husband spoilt me rotten and bought me the most beautiful ammolite ring in St. Thomas! But most of all I'm glad to be home.

By the way I happy to most heartily agree with LadyNOLA and Dk's view on God. He is an entity of TRUE LOVE and TRUE GRACE.

Welcome back, doll! We missed you!

Welcome back, lady!

OMG, I found my spurs! They've been missing for so long.... Happy

OMG, I found my rubber monkey!

I love going through old stuff....
