got laid off - HIRED!!!
Meryl:
Del, I'm so sorry to hear you got the pink slip. It wouldn't be so bad if you didn't have so much company nowadays, everyone looking for something to keep the rent paid. This sucks mightily.
I echo what John said. Your presence here will be missed if you have to give up the internet. Please use that library and keep in touch with us. Fingers crossed that you get a job soon and won't have to do it.
RouxB:
Del-that sucks!
I was in your shoes a few months ago and it can be so demoralizing when you separate from your company-especially when you have been there for a long time.
I hope something comes your way quickly and that you end up in an even better place than you left. I have all my positive energy pointing in your direction.
delalluvia:
Thanks enja and everyone.
I think demoralized is the word. My immediate bosses were regretful, knowing the years and dedication I had put into my job.
I think I am also broken-hearted. I so wanted to go to Italy next year, my dream trip, then start saving for a little cottage/condo/shack to buy...I hated my place of employment and their business philosophies and dealings, but the income I earned there allowed me to enjoy the simple pleasures in my life...and now it looks like I'm going to have to start all over again, and it really hurts to have to give up all my dreams/hopes/and most importantly to me, peace of mind - again - to start over.
Kelda:
Stay positive - you can still do those things Im sure..it may just take a little longer.

Unfortunately the pain you are feeling is shared by too many these days, and I am sorry that you have lost your job.
Fortunately though, you only have yourself to worry about.
Imagine how it feels to someone with a family when this happens, and they cannot pay school expenses, and have difficulty buying clothes and even food for their kids, let alone keep up with mortgage payments to keep a roof over their heads. One day everything is going along OK, then whamo, something out of their control changes everything.
It is a very sad state of affairs.
