dancing cloud Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 So glad to hear it's all working out well and wishing you all the best for Thursday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superkitty Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I had a similar situation to you - made redundant from the company I'd worked for for 16 years, since I was 19. It was awful for a while and took some recovering from but everything worked out ok in the end and I found another, better job easily when I dusted myself off and got going again. It was a much bigger shock emotionally than I'd ever expected - so you have my sympathy! Good luck for Thursday, knock em dead! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 (edited) My situation was different, being older and having been in a very good job for a long time, I welcomed a chance to take a change of direction with my life. I did some temping whilst making plans, and was offered a permanent post through the temp job - but turned it down! I had had enough of working indoors (I was a PA). I looked around and asked myself what I would like to do, I phoned an organisation that I thought I would enjoy working for, got an interview the same day (they were recruiting for the season) and got the offer of a job 2 days later. I am a Tour guide and absolutely love my job, I miss being warm sometimes, working outside in Feb can be challenging, but the summer sunshine is a bonus! I meet people from all over the world and learn something new every day! I have made true friends - not just colleagues. I've been there 6 years and will probably stay till I retire - and beyond! Our oldest guide is 85 and still works part-time! One door closes so that another can open! I hope you find something you love! If you end up taking a job "to pay the bills" - keep looking with an open mind to finding something that you'll love doing! We spend too long at work - so try and find something you'll enjoy! ....and no! I wasn't always so positive, I had days/weeks where I had my own little raincloud over me all the time! But they've gone now! Edited January 17, 2012 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
