I just got blindsided folks. Manager and some HR lady pull me into a chat room and inform me they are letting me going due to company restructuring :-) I didn't see this coming at all I'm devastated and don't know what the fuck to do. [Reply]

I’ve got some really business sensitive data sitting on them too. [Reply]

Toss a half dozen bricks in the box too. It'll trash the equipment during shipping, and cost them a shitload for the shipping weight. [Reply]
Sorry to hear. Want to echo what some others have said - file for unemployment TODAY. It takes time. It may be the thing you least feel like doing right now, but the longer you wait, the longer it will take for that first check to arrive. [Reply]
Change your facebook profile pic to have the gay pride flag in the background and post a status update saying YOU CAN'T KEEP A QUEER DOWN EVEN THO UR TRYING XYZ CORP!!!! [Reply]

Companies are generally grossly incompetent. HR is even more incompetent. [Reply]
Wow. I lost my job today too. Boss came in and said the place is closing. I am not needed anymore. I was handed my check. I worked for this company since April 2012. I didn't expect this. [Reply]
I had a buddy that got fired awhile ago and he already has a new gig, lots of jobs out there right now. My buddy got screwed as well with his firing. He had a company truck and they asked if he could keep it four or five weeks until they could come and get it. Two days after he got fired, he went and parked the Truck in a handicap zone and it got towed the next day. By the time the company showed up to grab the truck, 8 weeks later, the company had to pay a several thousand dollar impound fee. [Reply]
