😢😢😢

Hi @BlueBay

Very sorry to hear it's so hard today. Are there some things you might do to keep your mind off things?

Don't forget if things get really hard, you can call:

Lifeline 13 11 14

Suicide Callback Service 1300 659 467

Take care of yourself and I hope tomorrow is a little easier.

@BlueBay

You can do this. Jersey is helping and at least you are rostered on with someone who has the same issue. Find a way to tell the truth, and dont take it personally. Its their loss.

Hugs

@Appleblossom @PurplePanda2 I have to be careful I don't talk bad about the new owner as I can get sued.
I told an old lady earlier whom I've known for 10 years. She was upset and gave me a big hug. I see her often on her own at local cafe. So I said if I see her I'll have a coffee eith her. She said she would shout me. She is such a nice lady.
This is the hard bit - telling the customers. I'm going to miss them so much - well the nice ones anyway!!!

@BlueBay, hope the rest of your day goes okay. Thinking of you 🙂

Hi @BlueBay

This is a really tough time for you and your emotions are all over the place which is confusing - and yes - you do have to be careful what you say about the new owners - better not to mention them except that they are changing staff - which is normal while not pleasant

Actually - you can get through this and focus on a couple of truths here - one that being sack in such a situation has no reflection upon you - it's happened to your co-workers too - ands it's really unfortunate - and also - you can think about the future - and finding a new job - and this is hard because so much of our identity is involved with our work - so you do have lots of things happening inside right now but you will be okay -

And I have always found working out notice from either side - when I have been retrenched or I have resigned - is always hard - as if my work as always been involved with each day meaning I was preparing for the future - being prepared to close the books at the end of the month or even just leaving my desk tidy each afternoon and making sure that the people on 7 day accounts were always paid on time - so leaving meant that things were up in the air and I think for most people that when the time to leave actually comes there is a sense of relief that you can get on with the next thing

And think too that when you have had a bit of a break then you can start looking for another job if that's what you are planning to do and you can put all your energy into it - that's hard to do when we already have a job - easier when we are really looking for work

Yes it's tough but it's not the end - but I hear you - your emotions are out of control and you can't control that but you can think about a new future which has to be better than the weeks and months you have been waiting for the day to come and now it has

Be kind to yourself - so many people here are supportive - that is pretty wonderful actually
