awwww... thanks y'all. Your support means a ton to me - more than you can know! All I can say is that is was a rough day at the office today... For those of you who don't know, I work for ABC News.
when we heard about the mtg - we only thought 2 people from New York were holding the mtg... I was stunned when we were all gathered waiting for the second person (the head f my dept) to arrive to start the mtg ... and she showed-up with 10 "suits" from NY in tow... a rep. from EVERONE's dept., including finance, the union, etc... in addition to human resources reps. it was like a friggin' funeral procession... it was just awful.
as for how I am doing... I am okay... I actually look at this as a gift... an opportunity to spread my wings... I know if this wouldn't have happened I most likely would have retired from there - never having explored other avenues... as for my co-workers.. I am heart-broken for them... most of them have been there for over 20 years, but not yet retiring age.
Thanks for listening y'all... I have not been in this position before and my head is spinning a bit.
The worst part is I had to tell my dad and step-mom today before they leave on a long weekend getaway... it will be released to the press tomorrow.
