Happy Thanksgiving. I got fired yesterday.
Me and my mouth, sticking up for what I believe in, and stupid backstabbing bitches. Hope they have a great day.

1. Maine-ah, I am so sorry.
Unemployment sucks at any time of year, but even more so now. I hope you have family & friends close by to help. I don't know what I'd do without mine.

8. The stupid backstabbing bitches, I feel for you.

If you don't stick up for what you believe, you have lost anyway. However, I know about the bitches, I was one of them. I believe it is the societal imposed inferiority and perceived value of the unattainable that causes women to band together and scapegoat anyone they can. Get an attorney if you have to. :hug:

edit for letting spellcheck do the thinking, stoopid spellcheck.

9. One day...not today...you'll be glad you're away from them.
Today, the situation just sucks. But when you're fully on the other side of it and in a new and better environment you'll be glad that this is in your past.

Best wishes for the best possible Thanksgiving today, given the circumstances.
