07.21.23 | My condolences, that shit is never easy and always a kick in the teeth
The next thing will be better, not because of some wishy washy manifestation bullshit, but because the wisdom, self-knowledge and experience you’ve gained in this job will allow you to set a standard more suited to you than what came before.
And if it’s not, you can always just leave that job too B^) |

07.26.23 | Thanks for the cheer ups everyone, my wife and I decided I am on "funemployment" for the time being. This will give me the opportunity to work on my novel and complete various tasks around the house that have needed attention. It only took four years, but I officially became a stay at home husband (for now) |
Scoot
07.26.23 | if you're in sales this happens basically every 2-3 years on average |

I’m in the same boat. Don’t be discouraged, there’s always a new job around the corner. Or you can make your own work. Find out things you’re good at, try something new, whatever. Just never give up, don’t let yourself be so discouraged that you feel resigned. Being a stay at home dad is also completely legit depending on your financial situation. Anyways that’s a few thoughts |

07.26.23 | being a stay at home dad sounds epic
thats my life goal |

07.26.23 | Sitting around dossing writing a ‘novel’ while being on ‘funemployment’ Christ almighty no wonder you were given the tin tack |
Ryus

zakalwe
07.26.23 | Bit too heavy if you’ve gone all in with bacon, sausage, egg, beans, mushrooms but yep delicious. |
Ryus
07.26.23 | yeah i had one full english the last time i was in london and i was practically out of commission for the whole day lol. def not the sort of thing you can eat every day |
SomeCallMeTim
07.26.23 | black and white pudding are the besttt
sorry about your job m8, but glad you're looking at it with a positive-ish spin it seems. Get the things you've been putting off done while you can, and something better will find you |

I'm about 80% a 'wfh dad' currently and it's no doss, wife doesn't get home until 7pm most nights so I get two busy hours picking up, feeding, washing and entertaining the kid straight after work.
Busy times but mostly epic, sometimes just manic. |
DoofDoof
07.26.23 | I'd definitely rather be working than a full time dad, that'd be extremely psychologically intense long term, and got to be honest keeping the same standard of education and socialising she does at nursery would be impossible for me to provide.
Fair play to anyone who's a stay at home parent though, tough gig. |
Dedes
07.26.23 | Good luck my dude, idk if you had a good gig or not but it sucks when you feel you might have to downgrade to make ends meet. |
Zakusz
07.26.23 | I was the marketing manager for a private wealth practice in Michigan. My position was absorbed by an external marketing agency with no notice. Came a shocker, it was a pretty good gig and I enjoyed it. But life has thrown a nice opportunity at me and my wife's income allows me the ability to hash out my next move with little to no worry. I acknowledge this is not the norm for a lot of people in the world and for that I am grateful that I can take some time to work through it until I employed once again. |

11.01.23 | Update. I am employed. |
