This to shall pass....
as some of you know my husband was terminated on Monday. So far he has gone to two job fairs and even applied at a couple of places. This too shall pass! Thanks for everyone's thoughts.

O_o you might want to add a word in the first sentence there, "my husband was terminated" sounds.. um.. violent.

5. An old employer of my husband's would send these memos
about some new idiotic policy on it & the end would always say "comply or be terminated."
It always sounded very ominous.

3. Wow..My first thought was; Oh Man, this poor woman's...
....husband was on life support and she had to "pull the plug"

I was thinking of something nice to say.

Wait..I'll still think of something nice to say

Ah..Thank You.

7. To all you semantic perfectionist....
I guess I'm supposed to use the word "fired". There, does that make you feel better?

8. termination anxiety
I was terminated from a position I was very qualified for, good at, and which I loved(mainly because i didnt hafta do anything) and since then, I have had several job changes, but i think it screwed up my mental stability because i'm always wondring if im gonna get fired. I find myself planning "pre-emptive strikes"
