I’m writing a different kind of blog due to some sad events that happened lately in my life.
I am a work-from-home employee or freelancer. I am working in a good but young company as a software/website tester. Things seem okay. I’m doing a fine job. My teammates are okay with me. I had a superb time with them when I had this chance of meeting all of them. Last friday, my superiors told me that there is much improvement in me, that finally I have adjusted and blended with the company’s rhythm. “Keep it up” they say. Then, the next working day (Monday), I got the news that I am sacked. sniff sniff.
I was sacked because there’s not much to do. The company decided to eliminate my position perhaps as a cost-cutting measure or because they do not want to keep an employee that’s not doing much because there’s not much work to do. Of course I understood perfectly. The thing is, I really love my job. it’s like a first love to me.
The pain that I felt was comparable to that of a lady going out with her man, enjoying life, having a great time, only to be dumped by her man at the end of the day.
They said “Move on”, “Keep going”…. but how could I?
