******** THANK YOU DU ************

[xultar]

It is official I got the axe. But I would have been so much more of a basket case without you. So, I just wanted to say thank you to all the words of support. I am glad I have a place to come to and talk with people on a daily basis. I really can't talk to the people closest to me. I don't know why. It is tough, because it makes me feel so alone. But after yesterday and today I can truly say that I am not alone and man.....THAT FEELS GOOD.

So, THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

I'm glad it made you feel good. Keep us posted on your prospects! :hug:

I'm saving that picture.

You know, I got a call about a job this morning and I'm going over specifics in a call in a few moments.
With luck I'll be starting work Monday after next.

My boy, Bo.

[tandot]

49. How cute.

My dog has the pug tail and has a more solid (chunky) body than a chihuahua. However, his face and legs are all chi.

[calimary]

14. Hey sweetie - we're totally with you!

I know how isolating it can be sometimes. You are among friends here. Sometimes rather fiery ones, but solidly in your corner nonetheless. What I also like is - no matter what time it is, there's ALWAYS somebody up (from wherever it is that they are), here on DU!

:hug: :fistbump: :pals: :thumbsup: :grouphug: :yourock: :patriot: :toast: :hug:

[myrna minx]

15. Hang in there. All of my best wishes to you.

[OhioChick]

16. I'm sorry to hear this and hope you find something soon.

:hug:

[gleaner]

17. You're welcome xultar ...

I'm glad we were able to help. Sometimes it is harder to talk to people close to you. I don't know why. I always was afraid of making them as unhappy or frightened as I was. It was easier with people I didn't know so well. They sometimes had a perspective that never occurred to me if I tried to figure things out on my own.

But you are rebounding, and I think you'll continue to rebound. Keep posting and writing and let us know how you're doing. You and your little dogs. We all care very much. I saw that in yesterday's thread. Please keep in touch and if there is anything I can do for you, just ask. I'll try my best to help.:hi:

[gratuitous]

19. Well, you took one of life's best shots

And you're still standing, pink hair ruffled by the breeze. After a suitable period of grief, it will be time to move on to the next phase in your life. Best wishes and good luck.

[PCIntern]

22. I felt badly that I missed the last thread...

I saw it this AM and was moved that you face(d) this today.

Just keep the feet moving...my Daddy used to say that "If you stop moving, they just start shoveling dirt on you." You'll get something quickly, I hope and pray.

Best,

PC

[bear425]

23. I totally missed that this was happening to you.

30. Hugs to you xultar. I was laid off in January. It helps to keep a routine (get up

at a regular time each day to do job searches, etc.). Are you eligible to receive unemployment benefits? COBRA? Please know you are not alone.

[tularetom]

32. If I had any money I'd hire you

I don't care what you do. Anybody with 5 dogs is OK with me.

Besides your avatar is kinda cute.

Good luck to you in your job hunt and take care of the five guys.:hi:
