Today's the day ... after 3 months of uncertainty, I got the news today that I will not be returning to work. The company did all that it could to try to maintain the furloughed workers in the hopes of bringing them all back, but the effects of COVID-19 on the economy hit them pretty hard.
I am saddened by the events, but I completely understand. They are a top-notch company, and I have only good things to say about my time there. I had hoped to retire with that company, but life had other plans.
My official end date is this coming Friday, July 10th, 2020 and they are doing their best to help us transition out.
It is a scary time, but change is always scary. I am not without skills or solid work experience; I will send out my resume, I've updated my business website, Cherita Axel Designs, and I will email contacts to see if they know of any jobs that may be a good match for me.
I am strong, and I will get through this even stronger
