hello.
like a phoenix from the ashes...my company rises again.
actually, a more accurate analogy would be that it's the cockroach of the industry, it just won't die.
anyhoo, the above two sentences refer to the fact that my job got extended for at least two more months. you'd think this would be a good thing for me, but it's not. in fact, it's very very not good for me. in other words, bad. basically, this extension is gonna cost me 3 month's pay. i have to stay another two months to get the severance, which normally wouldn't be so bad, but i'm not planning on being around that long. i wouldn't really mind this so much, but the main thing that pisses me off is EVERY other person in my group will be getting their severance pay in a couple weeks AND will be able to continue working, while i don't. why? it's kind of complicated to explain, but it's basically because i'm awesome at work and they wanted to keep me an extra week, which makes it a bigger kick in the balls.
to summarize, let's hear from mike and worm in "rounders":
mike: so you fucked us right in the ass.
worm: yeah, all the way.
