Change!

Well. This afternoon, I was laid off (so were a lot of people...). Obama voters: send cash, cat food, or rum, or we're going to come live on your couch.

While I was being escorted out, my manager asked if I was going to remain in Milwaukee, and I laughed, because how the hell am I supposed to know? If someone in a less socialist state needs a slightly-used button pusher, well, I'll miss Spotted Cow. I don't have enough kids for any government to offer to pay me to stay unemployed in Milwaukee, so I'll have to work somewhere...

Oh no, really sorry Heather!

This really sucks! So sorry to hear it. Well, if you want to relocate, TN is pretty nice, not to mention usually warmer. :/

Ugh.

Days are getting a bit grim all around.

Amy said...

Sorry, Heather. This is awful.

I'll pray you find work and quickly. Drop me a line in the meantime if I can be of help...

Not the change you want to hope for!

No less socialist in MN. However, we do have the most generous welfare programs in the country...lots of former WI and IL residents vouch for it!

Three words.

Run to Alaska.

That's all I can recommend ;3

Kate said...

Alaska??? Jeez...isn't WI already cold enough?
