Anyways, on to the rest of the story.
So, I think I'm safe. I guess I was just naive, but I really didn't see this coming. On 3/11/09 I was called into a conference room and told I was being let go because of the economy. Great. The economy caught up to me. I had been careful in my spending, I had been cautious with my life, and it still got me somehow.
It turns out that 10% of my company was let go that day. While I viewed my job as extremely important (I mean, who doesn't?), to the people at the top, I was nothing more than $$ on paper.
Now, I don't hold any bad feeling against my former company. Rather, I thank them for the time I had to work with them, gaining experience and life lessons. They are a great company, and had to do what they had to do to stay afloat.
Doesn't change the fact that its rough on me though....
