Well "laid off" is the correct nomenclature I suppose. While unexpected this was not entirely surprising - I work(ed) for a small market research company and the sales have been in the toilet this year. 1/3 of last years sales through August. I am not alone in my misery as there are cuts ranging from sales through other project managers and right up to the director of operations who is a lovely lady who has been with the company since its founding.
Anyway I don't really want this to be a Steemit sob story but if you want to give me any extra love today I will take it!
My former position was a work from home position. My wife and kids are still sleeping - this might be bad form in some respects to tell y'all first, but hey - you are my Steemit family as well. When I walk out of my back office after posting this, I am going to go look at the sleeping faces of my two angel boys and my beautiful wife 
Much love - Carl
