Recently, I’ve been retrenched from my work place… It was a shock to me at first. Especially when they just texted me on the day I was supposed to work. I’ve got everything ready. Packed my stuff, ironed my clothes for the 3 night shifts and tried to sleep during the day. Well, last one didn’t go as planned cause I just bought a new PS3 game, “Valkyria Chronicles”, got excited about it and woke up at 11am to play it till it was time for me to go to work. The company texted me to return my locker key and tools at around 3pm…. Well, the rest was history. And yes, I still played the game till it was time to go…hehe

The severance package was really good! Most people were happy about it. I was quite happy and relived to just to get out of the place. I’ve been wanting to quit the job cause it was taking a toll on my health and mental stability…(the last bit is partly true due to the fact that I worked night shift, not that it’s just me)

I only stuck around for 2 things. The people that I’ve met there, (the operators and colleges, don’t think that I’ll find a better crew to work with) and the fact that I’ve promised that I’ll work there for 3 years to the guy that employed me. Well, it was almost 2 years and now they kicked me out, hahahaha!!! ~I’m loving it~

I won’t deny that after a few days, I missed all the people that I’ve met while working in that company. Still do. Now I face the thing I hate most about being jobless. Finding a job. But I can’t find a job now cause I’m going on a trip to Europe in May. This trip was all planned almost a year ago… This situation placed me in a dilemma. I can’t find a permanent job due to the back-packing vacation. i can only start work after June cause the trip is gonna last for almost 3 weeks! Part-time job then! – no….don’t want that………

It’s been almost 2 weeks now. I’ve went on several job hunts with several colleges of mine that also undecidedly cut ties with the company. Most of the time I’m just playing around and partly not serious about the interviews. I DO want a permanent job. I DO want a trip with my nakama. (nakama = friends, comrades, blood brothers, etc.)

Other then my laid back attitude towards finding a job, the recession is another factor that worries me. Those 2 and the fact that I can’t stand not doing anything at home, is *killing me softly…(*always wanted to write with this fitting in a sentence, hehe )

The good thing is that I’m single with almost no commitments. No cars, no girlfriends, no worries…much. Now I’m hoping to find a permanent job that would accept me after June. That’s what I’m hoping for. So I’ll wait and see. Unless my boredom kills me first, I’ll blog about this again in another 2 weeks, perhaps.
