Drum Roll Please...

The Hammer has come down. I am safe. Do I feel safe?
It is weird how things went down... I found out by error. I confronted my boss and discussed with him disclosing the truth early, we are a small group, we are family, we deserve the opportunity of hearing it from him...and all the facts not the rumors and gossip, and not from the guy in a tailored suit from a stuffy office in the downtown building who cant even pronounce my last name for F Sake.
So he did it. He was professional and honest, I am proud of him for that. It could have been a "every man for himself" scenario, but he did what he needed to do. After the group announcement he went into each individual office and spoke with us all individually...answered questions, offered up tissues and alcohol. Classy man for that... I am sure his wife was urging him to take this road as well... we women are smart... Men should really listen more.
We all know this location is finished. Some will move to the other location, some will go on to other places. Things happen for a reason...and I am not just saying that because I still have a place of employment...secretly I was wanting to be done, take my severance, ride the unemployment train and spend the so desperately wanted time with my boys... truth be told I am not sure how much longer the other office will hold up so this just buys me time.

I have come to work for the past 5 years and seen a lot of the same faces, shared stories, vacation pictures, nights out with these people and all of a sudden it is suppose to be "nice ride...see ya on the flip side" ? Crazy.

I go to see Michal shortly, my boss offered up to continue drinks after work.. I turned him down... a good verbal vomit session was more appealing and needed.
