Arghh!! Im so scared. I'm feeling anxious about losing my job and not knowing where I can work and when I can work. Its not easy finding a job when I'm a mom of 4 kids under the age of 8. I didn't want to leave my job. I loved it. I'm gonna miss it. My customers were my friends. They are gonna miss me. Its like I just ended over 100 great friendships and I didn't even get to say goodbye. I'm trying so hard to be strong for my kids but I feel myself getting depressed and my world crashing. I hate not being my cheerful self.

DH felt the same way when he lost his job. he worked there for 13 years and made a lot of good customer friends. then he had what he thought was 2 weeks left and then that turned into 4 days. he was the only income for us. unemployment.i mean yeah that was money...but 900 a month for a family of 4? who owns a home? a dog? ugh...it sucked sooooo bad. DH has a new and better job now, travel sucks but its a job...its going to take us awhile before our feet are solid on the ground again...but i get where you are coming from. its hard and it sucks not knowng the what ifs.

Basically he either fires everyone or laid them off. We trained our replacements

I totally know what you mean about the customers. I worked at a gas station when I was pregnant with my oldest. I was so sad when I left, I quit, I can't imagine being fired and having to train my replacement though, I would have been like see ya! I still run into my old customers. Those people were SO great. I have a few things that people bought me as gifts when I was pregnant, just to be nice, they new I was a young mom and my then bf and I were just starting out. Everytime I look at that stuff, I get teary lol.

Have you thought about just being a SAHM? That's why I quit. I love being at home. I'm hoping to be getting a PRN job at the hospital but I wouldn't be gone often, so its a win win. *hugs* you will feel better soon!
