Sometimes your better off leaving even though you have a hard time believing as hard as you work your being let go. There’s something much better for you in the next chapter. Yeah, it seems like an injustice and makes no logical sense, but you’ve got talent and its needed elsewhere. This industry is wide open in so many areas, social media, mobile marketing, to name a couple. Good Luck and embrace an exciting future.

Ronald is right; you clearly have the talent and ambition to succeed on your own and are probably better off away from this company. It’s important to remember that your lay off was no reflection on the quality of your work; it sounds like you made a significant contribution to the company and were a loyal member of staff. Particularly in the current economic climate, lay offs have to be made where they would previously not have been necessary. I admire your positive attitude towards your situation and agree that you should view the change in terms of new opportunity rather than dwelling on what is lost. Good luck!

I am sorry to hear that, it happens with companies.

Just look at this as another opportunity. :)

Thanks Ronald. That’s exactly where I’ll be for a while, at home and cooking up some new strategies.

With your talent as I can see in this blog, you will find a better gig. I had the same situation before, I could have been a team leader then but something went wrong.

I was really disappointed until I found out that there is a lot of potential in the homebased business.

Very weird, yes. Others in IT weren’t exactly thrilled with the switch to Microsoft, if you can imagine.

That’s the way to go!

What is totally weird about your situation is the move from the PHP/Linux/Apache to Microsoft. It’s usually the other way round!!!

Very odd. And that’s coming from someone who is a ‘PC’!!

Hey Mike, All I can say is I really appreciate the words of encouragement. I’m trying not to take it too hard.

I have big plans for my blogging and site building and I’m more excited than ever about the future. Only optimism here. Thanks again.

Sounds like your better off without them! Dont forget that ultimately, your VP got a hard on laying you off, despite all the soft words. All people ‘in power’ do.

In the end you will get the better of them. Count this as a blessing and an opportunity.

So I wish you all the best on your new path. Whatever that turns out to be :-)

Regs,
Mike
