yup, it's true...
as of an hour and 8 minutes ago, i am no longer an employee of St. Joseph Hospital. Why the hell am i not freaking out? I actually told myself i would probably get fired today before i left for work (i was late) (again)... Somehow i can't help but think this is the best thing that could have happened to me- it's one of those cases where I couldn't bring myself to quit a job i was sick of because of bennies so I just created a scenario where someone would have to force me to leave. I've been going through massive changes in the past couple months and this is one thing i was too afraid to change on my own, at least directly. I don't know how many times in the past few months i have said "i should be fired" or "someday they're going to fire me" and i knew it to be true and i didn't care. It was a boring job and frustrating because of a lot of stupid policies i could never change.
So yup.... i got fired for the first time job at the age of 32... don't it make me smile?
I guess i get to see what the unemployment line looks like now : )

well not until reality hits me anyway... and thanks for the drinks offer, i'm sure i will take you up on it. I'll probably be spending my convergence weekend panhandling in downtown Seattle and I'm sure the drinks will come in handy after a hard day's work /images/wink.gif

well first, the photos have to come from the web, and it depends where on the web you are taking the photos from- some sites have it set up so you can't post their pictures anywhere else. Maybe that is the problem.
it's okay, i'll just use my imagination ; )

Sorry to hear about that...but then again as others has said, another door will soon be open to you. Once I graduate from college I'll be in the same position....early 30's with a new direction to take. But like yourself, I won't miss my current job. Being a janitor was never my life's ambition, but it does ground me and pay the bills. So until I graduate...it will still be time to scrub the toilets. :(

I know what you mean....I've wanted to get fired a couple of times.....I stayed at the bank until the last minute and I am sure if I hadn't resigned, they would have fired me for what I did at the end.
At the end of the day, I'm becoming more and more aware that I don't realy want to work for anyone except myself......
I'll have to see about that.
Looks like some major internet surfing time coming for YOU!!!

I don't know whether to say "Hey, congrats for being able to move on", or give an "I'm sorry you got fired".
I guess what I am trying to get at here is that when a person no longer feels passion for their job or cares whether or not they might get the axe, it is indeed time for a change. New phase ahead, plenty of jobs to be had, so if/when that unemployment line seems grim and evil, keep your chin up! And in the meantime, keep working on the tan!

But mine are probably a little furtherdown the line .....the central to eastern european celts had the dark hair, green eyes and pale skin.....that's what I got......the blue eyed, dark blonde haired, pales skinned celts seem to be mostly fron the norse / celt, irish celt back ground....

my motto about work is that you have to work to live and not live to work..
work should not make your life miserable... i once walked out of a job and i had nothing to go to.. but the bastards made my life hell.
i'd rather be a happy street sweeper than a miserable millionaire.. thats the truth.
so i think it's a good thing you can move on from this.. i find most things tend to fall into place after a while..

What! You are so damn funny though. You crack me up often. Particularly with the subject line on this post of yours. haha!!
Listen--you're better off. I have no doubt about that. I was in a dead-end, major sucky spot job-wise about 6 months ago, and I got out. Couldn't take it anymore and left without a tight grasp on the next job (I'd interviewed, but hadn't landed one yet). Had a new job (this one) within the week. phew! (cause it was right around X-mas). Not that I'm not still at a dead-endish kinda job, but it's a FAR CRY and huge step above from where the hell I'd been. Anyhoo--enjoy your time off and your down time. Re-group, strategize & you will faretheewell!! Congrats!!! And so close to Independence Day too! Woo-hoo!
