...it was a sad day at funrise...

May 23, 2005 20:50

...so rumors have been flying around for the past few weeks...

...but what i feared has finally become a reality...

...i feel sickened to my stomach over today's events...

...i haven't eaten all day and i wasn't able to focus whatsoever...(which couldn't have come at a worse time, considering tonight was my first final)...

...it was like a scene from a natural disaster...

...although this was no earthquake nor tsunami which no one could control...

...this was a monster....and it had wings...

...it flew through the office like the black plague...

..instantly infecting anyone within it's path...

...and before i knew what hit us...

...some sad, unfortunate souls had already succumbed to it's will...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

...in the company's lengthy history there has NEVER, EVER been any layoffs...

i've been completely overwhelmed with emotion today...i spent the first half of my morning in fear that my # would be called....and the second half of the day engulfed in tears...to top it off...i just pissed away my final exam...here's hoping my subconscious kicked in...

...first my girl jen a few weeks ago...and today...almost all of the people that were let go were my friends...

...one of which i nicknamed "Mom"...she's been there a year longer than i....and she's a phenomenal woman...she's helped me tremendously over the past 6 years...and i can't believe that now she's gone...

...i know it sounds selfish to say...but i have to say, i thank God that it wasn't me...but in the same breath...i'm sorry that it had to be anyone at all...

...you all have been a great inspiration to me....and i will miss each & every one of you...my thoughts & prayers are with you...

...let us take a moment of silence to grieve for the 10 souls that lost their positions today...
