From bad to worse.

[velvetpixie]

Nothing like starting your day with a phone call from your boss who informs you you're no longer employed. She cited poor work performance and horse handling safety issues. I broke my back for that position. If by horse handling safety she meant being bitten by a sedated stallion and tossed several feet then I sincerely hope that never happens to her. There is nothing I could have done to prevent that and it was handled as professionally as possible.
I gave up two better paying opportunities to work there simply because it was a chance to work with horses. I stuck my neck out, put all my eggs in one basket, held my breath and lept out into space. Lessons are painfully learned from great heights.
New adventures coming soon.
Stay tuned.
