....along with about 900 other people. Shitty feeling, it is. I'm trying to be very positive about this, but sometimes it's hard. We'll be alright financially. My package was pretty good for this cheap ass company:
1. Two months salary
2. My current paycheck as if I worked through the 15th
3. My money through the employee stock purchase plan
4. $1000 for COBRA (which will not be used for COBRA)
5. My bonus in May
6. Health coverage until May 1st (then I'll just get on my wife's for $30 a month; COBRA would cost $400 a month)
7. 2 months free assistance from an Employment Placement Program
Not to mention we got over $2000 for our tax return. So we'll be able to get by for at least 3 months. I've already applied for Unemployment, which will help a lot.
I honestly don't know what I want to do, but I know that I would love to be a high school baseball coach. Sounds gay, I know, but that's one job I would actually look forward to.
And at least I can look for something near my house instead of driving nearly 80 miles a day in commute.
As for the company* that laid me off, fuck 'em. Fuck 'em hard up the ass.
