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...

That sucks, man. When you say they cut you out, did they at least pay you for your share?

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

Still got my shares, so in the long run, hopefully I'll be having a nice little extra income to look forward to unless they **** the company.

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!

Congrats. So you work for one company and are a part owner in the other?

That sounds like it could be very profitable.

Well, I have no insight at all in the daily work of the company I was working for before, so there will be no loyalty conflicts there. 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...
