This is a post I write with mixed emotions. I'm in the process of breaking up with someone. That someone is my employer, and they told 1200 people just like me today, that in two weeks, they'll make a final decision about whether or not they will still have a role for me.
Its called redundancy and its giving me a lot to think about. It isn't the end of the world. The world doesn't care if 1200 people are unemployed. The universe didn't answer its calls. The media were onto the story moments after employees were informed. I went to go get some fresh air to find a camera crew outside my work building.
If the decision is made to make my role redundant, my last day of gainful employment with an employer of just over five years will be the 2nd of August. Appreciate this isn't the stuff I normally blog about, but its good news for you guys, as I will have some (well all) of the free time for Steemit while I search for a new occupation!
I'm pretty responsible financially, so I won't be outlandish in any spending, but you know what they say, you gotta spend money to make money! Just last night, I sent an email to my gym to cancel my membership, citing incredible workloads and not having enough time to think, let alone train (with recurring injuries holding me back as well!) - its the greatest irony that I got to respond to their "please stay" email with; "Well I'll have the time now, but probably not the money."
Stay tuned for more stuff from me on this here page. I'm unsure what the future holds, but pretty exciting to watch the entropy unfold. Don't worry, the one constant in my life throughout this will be Steemit! (I read this out loud to my partner, who still hasn't joined and she whined "There'll be me!") Yes, she's not going anywhere.
