Sign in to disble this ad
Friday last week, received a very unexpected e-mail, now I got no job...
Worst part is that I am part owner of the company (not majority though), and my business partners that are in majority has decided to cut me out...
Nice!
Good thing is that we just some months ago moved to a less expensive (but bigger) flat in a smaller town where everything is cheaper, bad thing is that here is less work, and my woman still haven't found a job after two months here...
As the wise peeps say, never trust anyone but yourself...

I'm sure you and your missus will get work soon. Keep at it!

Yeah, I got a great network, work in communications, and there seems to be lots of peeps in my network who are interested in different ways here now, so I think that in the end this will become a really good thing, and my lady may have found a job today, we don't know yet, but she had a meeting and it was very positive!
Cheers!

Nah, I am more or less spending my days working with finding new projects and ideas for new projects, the only way for me to go, I can't sit still, I get really restless if I do...

My woman was furios, if the main owner had been around here (we know/knew him, as a friend too), she would have sought him up and slapped him!

Good luck to you.

That sounds like it could be very profitable.

Apart from that, I am quite pissed at my old colleagues so if I see any sign of openings to sell them shares in the future, I am totally up for it, even if they become very profitable, they will sure as **** see too that there's no profit left to share at the end of the year as now I know where they stand, better late than never...

You should consider amending it to "The suddenly left with LOTS of free time" club  . It has a happier ring to it
