I was just informed that my job is going from three days to two days.

Three days has been perfect. I get the extra bux we need, *and* I get a day off so I can do other things before Friday, such as cooking in the wintertime, plus I can go to any conventions I want to.

Two days. Blah.

And they're telling it's not my job performance. It's because an elderly relative has lost her job.

She'll *never* be able to do the things I do with the computer. Half the agents can't.

But I'm sitting here trying not to cry - the lady is sitting in the office space in front of me. And this is not the time of year to look for another one, although it's probably what I now have to do.

Jonathan will be thrilled. I'll be working in my own neighborhood. But. Right now, it hurts. I've worked here the second longest of everyone. I started here 2001. I've done a good job. They miss me when I'm not here.

Good luck to them. And I should tell Jonathan but I can't.

Edited to add that it's all been solved. I'm back on three days/week. Yay!

That's really crummy. {{{hugs}}} Good luck to you, too.

That seems so wrong, to penalize you when you do your job well, for whatever reason. What a sucky situation. Phooey on them.

I hope you find some suitable job quickly, that's close to home, nice work environment (no issues with building utilities...), etc.

Well, heck. I was all prepared with sympathy, until I got to the end of your post.

Congrats on the quick turnaround. I'm glad you were able to make things work out the "right" way for you.

Well, that's bad and then it's good.

Go confuse me, why don't you :)
