What is it like to be fired?

It sorta feels like a hot summer day gone terribly wrong and then your skin burns away and then...oh, do you mean being terminated from a job?

Take a thought you have had for about a year. Make it a happy thought, one that makes you feel good about yourself and others.

Then erase it completely from your mind with no chance of saving it.

Kinda like that.

like shit

You get this deep panicky feeling in your stomach. Then (for me, as a girl at least) you feel like you're going to cry (also depending on whether you need/like your job). Then an overwhelming sense of faliure. Then everything kinda fades a little and it turns into mostly "Ah, shit I'm screwed."

Then you go out and get another job.

Yay, corporate cog.
