Oof, So no more work after next week…


So, the time is finally here and I only have work through next week. 1 more shift of canning sodas. I knew when I was hired that it would be seasonal to start. It’s a startup business launching their product in time for the xmas season. My boss had a deal with a major soda distributor and a large store, so hopes were high. I learned today that the distributor hasn’t sold any of our hemp infused sodas. 😦 Damn that sucks. I really like this job. It’s a very different feeling when the end is so close. I’ll still be on the payroll, so if there is work in the future, I could come in for work. That’s a big question mark though. Oh well.
Luckily I’ve been working with a career counselor for a couple weeks now, started to look for other work, and apply for jobs. With unemployment benefits through this month. I managed to keep some of it because this job was only part time. Also long term the counselor will help me find a suitable career path. So, things are happening slowly. This will be the second time I’ll be laid off this year. This time it isn’t a surprise. Still hurts to lose this job.
This too will pass, I guess.

It’s definitely been a long year… with challenges not many of us could even have expected to need to be prepared for. But you’re doing great, despite the pandemic ❤ Your overall attitude is what counts… and you've got this! 🙂
