I lost my job this past Friday. I was retrenched. 
The company I’ve worked for has had to down-scale staff and one of them was me. I had a feeling it was coming, but it still didn’t prepare me for the shock of it happening.
On Friday and Saturday I felt as though I was floating on another plane. But thankfully I put things in perspective and by Sunday midday I had drawn up a spreadsheet on my laptop with a few possible job opportunities.
So today, Monday, is my last day at work and I’m not sure when I’ll get a chance to blog again as my internet usage is a bit limited from my Blackberry.
If anyone hears of an admin, secretarial or PA position in the Durban area, please give me a holler. 
Love you all. xxx
I’m so sorry that you have to go through this! Feel free to visit my blog…it’s full of unemployed people including myself. You will be very welcomed!
Eish! All the very best to you, Karin. It’s happened to me before. My first job at an advertising agency as a copywriter. Kick in the gut. But within hours I was on another level of determination. The secret is to use this as impetus to a change for the better. Good luck! Visualize big!
I’m visualising big… and I’m getting small, lol.
I got offered a job for R3000 on Friday and one for R1500 today. *sob* I can’t support 2 lil dudes and myself on that. I’ll keep persevering though.
