I was fired today.
I will let you all know what happened, but right now, I need some time.
About Me
- Seeking Solace
- I am a college professor who is fumbling through the chaos of academia, rheumatoid arthritis, working on my PhD and just being a 40 something woman. I used to be a lawyer, which made me a snarky little person. I have a wonderful Husband and a German Shepherd named Junior. They help keep me sane.

NO! NO! This is awful. I am so sorry. I cannot believe this.
Oh my god! I'm so sorry; this must be quite a shock. Wish I could mix you a drink.
Horrific. Just horrific. I'm so sorry.
Is this because of FuckWeed?? It is, isn't it? Those bastards. I'm getting all mad just thinking about it.
OMG. I'm sorry. Please update us when you feel up to it. We're thinking about you.
Oh no! I'm so sorry to hear this!
Oh, I'm so sorry!
My god! That's unbelievable. (I'm assuming it hit you totally out of the blue like it hit us?)
It had better not be because of FW or your loyal readers will have to find him and burn his house down...
OMG I'm so sorry!
Oh no! I've never posted before but wanted to say I am so sorry! I so hope it wasn't over FW!
omg! i hope you were not dooced!
I've been lurking here for a while. Time for me to de-lurk and say how sorry I am to hear this. You'll be in my thoughts!
Shit! What the fuck's happened?! It's not cos of that little wanker, is it? Oh honey, I'm sorry!
Ouch! I'm so sorry honey, that is awful!
I'd love to bring you some cheesecake and booze -- it wouldn't solve the problem, but between them they can drown some sorrows.
If it helps, I've been fired twice and both times have ended up (eventually) being blessings in disguise. Do what I didn't do -- file for unemployment...
To be honest, they didn't deserve you -- and we all know that!
OMG! WTF??? I go away from the computer to package up some Xmas presents and come back to hear this. How absolutely awful- I'm so sorry!! Please let us know more when you feel up to it. I am stunned.
OMG! If this has something to do with FW then I'm coming over there and kicking his ass, I hope YOU will investigate legal remedies when you regain your balance. Know we are thinking of you.
Shit girl, I'm sorry and wish I could do something for you. Take care of yourself and know we are all here for you if you need to vent or whatever.
Their loss! I'm so so sorry. Hang in there!
Oh no, how awful. I'm so sorry to hear this. It sounds like you were blindsided--how insensitive.
Oh, no! I am so, so sorry to hear that. I know what if feels like, though, and it really sucks. It's a statement about them, though, not you. Keep us informed.
WTF??!! I second and third everyone's comments.
Oh! I'm so sorry!! I don't really know what to say/write.
How horrible for you. Whatever it was, you don't deserve it. Get some rest and know that you ave friends in cyberspace who genuinely care about you.
Oh no! I'm so sorry. I hope they realize their mistake. God, what a terrible thing.
Hang in there. We are rooting for you.
What the hell?
I'll be checking back to get the story. I hope this doesn't have anything to do with reporting plagiarism.
Oh no! I'm so sorry to hear this. I hope things smooth out for you. If you need to vent, I'm here for you!
I'm incredibly sorry to hear this. It sounds like it came out of the blue, which is a crappy thing for an employer to do but it's extra crappy at this time of year. Hang in there and the blogosophere will be here to listen when you're ready.
I'm so sorry!!! Damn!
So sorry... Hugs, Alice
Argh. I'm waaaay behind on blog reading, so I just read this news.
I'm so sorry--and during the holidays, too.
Big hugs to you.
