So, i went in to work, like i have done every day (except sundays) for 11 months, and was told that, ''they can no longer afford me''. I kind of understand, seein as how my store was bought out on Jan 1st, and the new owners are tightwads, but it sucks non the less.

the bad news of all this, is depending on how long finding a job that pays what this one did takes, i might have to sell the turbo kit i JUST bought off Malenko... it isnt even here yet... fed ex is dropping it off today. I might also have to sell the built motor that i bought from him, that i should have next week. i'm so pissed off at possibly having to sell it, i want to choke the bastard that just fired me... it makes me madder than getting fired.

any ways, i'm done venting. when the turbo kit gets here i will take some pics and show you all cause it'll make me happier than i am right now....

Did you at least steal a bunch of office supplies before you left?

i wish... but i did burn the tires on the eclipse around the entire parkinglot on my way out, and i took the long way out of the lot... i know the bastard saw me....

So, you didn't get fired, you got laid off. You can still collect until something BETTER comes along. Don't worry, these stories always have happy endings on 2GNT!! :thumbsup

cant you collect unemployment?

i can and i will but its not what i was making its only a precentage of it.

Better than nothing at all...

About 65% should hold you over till you get a new job PLEASE DONT SELL YOUR SHIT. Today you are feeling oh crap I dont have a job. Sit on the couch and drink over the weekend. on mon get out of your house and get to it. You have an eclipse to support.

And A month from now get a bb-gun and shoot out the windows of your old work in the middle of the night. :) ahhhh feel better now.

ROFL! i would love to shoot out he windows... in fact... no.. no i cant. i dont wanna risk it. great idea though. and you right, i do have an eclipse to support. its almost as needy as a child, and every bit as important.

Take a good pic of your eclipse, blow it up and put it right above your stash of Raman and Mac-n-Cheese.
this way when your pissed that your having to eat that crap you can stare at your goal and then feel better about the 12 cent bowl of noodles you just ate :thumbsup

Canned. Aweful.

My gf has been out of work for a month, we think she's pregnant and to make things worse on the both of us, the prego test she took came up BLANK! Yes, blank.


Not only will I have to fund my eclipse but my girlfriend and most likely a newborn baby.

The main thing me and my girlfriend discussed is my car. I told her it makes me happy. She told me if it makes me happy, i can keep it as long as we can still pay bills and pay for food.

Top ramen and easy mac counts as food, right?

Formula is covered because women have boobs and you can make baby food from fresh local produce and a fricken food processor.


If life was easy they'd call it easy instead.

Hang in there and live like a dirtbag. Dont wash clothes unless you have to, eat ramen, become a male prostitute....... Dont get rid of your car or your turbo kit.

the eclipse just needs to run. The welfare of a child and significant other is a bigger resonsiblity.
