On April Fool's day of all days, I learned I lost my job. Why? For no reason other than “cutting costs”. And they just hired a ton of people too over the past few months. The worst aspect is that I was just two months out from this position being full-time. It was a contract to hire. It was guaranteed that I'd get the position. Alas, I was a fly and I landed on those honeyed words. I'm just another business casualty. What a cruel joke. Corpo's are the worst!
“We're a rapidly expanding company! You joined at a perfect time!” What a crock of rehearsed corpo jargon.
The worst part is I liked the people; they were laid back and cool. The position was perfect for me. I liked working in a lab environment. This entire situation sucks harder than a busted airlock on the international space station.
Now, I'm gonna mope for the evening and look for new horizons tomorrow.
Just needed to get this off my chest.
