A serious WTF moment!

The garage door was broken,the door would get stuck and the motor would start screeching grrrrr when the door was half way up. So,we called the home warranty company and the guy came over to take a look at it. There was no stress about who works from home/takes a break from work to stay home to be around when the repairman came,i was conveniently at home anyhow!
He came over,"diagnosed" the issue,came over to pick up the check. I asked him what the problem was,and he said " its a problem with the switch,must be too geeky for you". I was so mad,and said that had a masters in EE, and know what a damn switch was!I insisted be explain the problem,or I ain't giving him a dime!I was seriously pissed,maybe last week,I would have let it go,but really? Was one silly 25 year old motor-switch logic too complex for me? I need to get a job soon!

We need to talk!

Oh-oh! That never means a good thing,does it? A few days ago,my manager came by my office and said that to me,walking me to a conference room. My stomach sank as I walked along. I knew what was coming,the scene had been terrible at work the past few weeks,but still when someone came to get ME,it hit me hard. It was like preparing to jump into a ice-cold pool,you mentally prepare yourself,but still, that moment water hits skin,that chill down the spine cannot be avoided!
I got back to my office,packed,and left. I came down to the car,sobbing,and called N,my buddy. Luckily,she was home,and asked me to go spend some time with her and collect myself before taking the next steps. The outplacement service folks were on campus,I met them for some insightful info. That day was spent in a state of shock!
Anyhow,I think writing down what I do each day is going to help me keep track of what I do with my time,lest weeks go by and I wonder how time flew away!
As they say,today is the first day in a new journey of my life!
