    :mad: Went in to start my new job this morning, to be told that the guy I was replacing decided to stay and they wouldn't be needed me.

    I was super excited, and I can't even begin to tell you how bummed out I am.

    Im tired of feeling worthless.



    Have a good day people :eek:

    Neon, you're not worthless. Hang in there, do a little catering on the side. If the place that hired you didn't even bother to let you know about this, they probably weren't worth working for anyway.

    Don't let it get you down. That will only make it worse. Give it time and you'll find something. Just got to keep lookin.

    Dick move by an employer. You're better than that so move on and I'm sure you'll find a deserving employer.

    Lots of people considering moves around TW. Can't blame any of them/us! :p

    Consider it some extended freedom to go and do what you what and be where you want to be. Seize the opportunity, pick a place and make the move! :)
