Well, it became official about 2 weeks ago.
I will be unemployed at the end of June...unless a project comes along.
It isn't too surprising. After losing that job in March, it was really only a matter of time. My boss tends to be very optimistic and upbeat, but I guess even she has a limit and needs to think about the bottom line.
For the last 3 weeks or so I had been volunteering at the Tribeca Film Festival. Mostly in 'production' which means: moving boxes around. stacking boxes. moving boxes around again. 'staging' boxes onto trucks or vans. The guys I worked with were really nice--but I was a bit, um, what's that word? Oh, yeah..bitter, since most of the guys were paid PAs. Anyway, I am glad that I did it, it did fill the time up.
My next task is to find a place to put the office into storage. Again, my boss's optimism is warranting me to only put it into storage, rather than pack it off to LA. I am having some problems, as the place we want to store it (my former office space, former storage location and possible source of work) is telling me they have no space for me. :/
