Suddenly, instead of having a full time job, I'll start coming to work on-call only for some signatures needed until the company totally shuts down...it's bankrupt. No severance pay.
I knew this would happen and coincidentally I ran into an online job last year. It's quite turning out well because I already got the grip and received incentives. I was even given more hours to work. But of course I cannot go on it in a full blast because of this office job. So I only work like 2- 4 hours on weekdays and 6-8 hours on weekends.
I was really thinking of my budget when I read the memo. I must be more frugal. Little luxuries must take a back seat. Could my savings and part-time job sustain me until I can cope with this life-changing sudden arrangement?
Then I was given a check for 11k. WOW... I didn't expect it! I thought I can never have my hair done this weekend and also skip the Spa. Yeah I'm shallow but these are the things I do to unwind after a hard work.
Things happen when we least expect it! And it's almost my Friday, Yay!

I hope the change works out good for you. You have a great attitude already towards it.
@SW-User Let's make a living out of life's redundancy. At least we have a roof over our heads and food on our tables. If something bad happens or we stay stagnant, count our blessings. This can make us feel better, right?
