Talking Today is the last day with my current job.

Just got out of my managers office and she told me today is my last day. I'll be moving across the hall to the Credit Bureau dept starting Monday.

If you don't see me online as usual, I'll be in training which sucks.

Don't worry, I'll be on to harass Jayvo (Mr. J)

Go ahead and 1 star it while you're at it too!

Is it an improvment or not from previous position?

As far as I know it's a lateral business move.

My current dept made some changes, and they did a swap between me and another associate. Don't ask me why.

Been there before. It's okay I guess, but you learn something new. I just won't have the down time starting next week like I usually do to when I go on bluray.com.

Nope because I will most likely get rejected. Better to have a job than no check.

I'm sorry to hear your situation!

In 2008 when everything went downhill. My friends/co-workers lost their jobs. It was a sad day.
Only a few of them were able to find another jobs later that year, but it was very tough on all of us. Including me.

They won't fire you for asking. But they won't give you an increase if you don't ask either.

Tell them you want a 5% raise or some kind of company stock.

I'm sorry to hear about you guys with the job trouble. My dad was out of work for 9 months, and when he lost his job I took a second part time here at school, and he is STILL only part time, so I am here, over qualified and underpaid, but I am loathe to release these secure jobs for the chance of something else.
I hope you all get some good luck soon!

Lateral move can get 10% sometimes. Stock options are not worth it unless you are getting a large volume and then you still need to wait a year before you can sell.
