The Noble Pagan Forums - Updates

Okay, some more updates came down last night. I've gone through the entire site and redid every link to the system last night (2 hours sleep YAY!). Instead of seeing http://www.noblepagan.com/forums/showthread.php?f=22&t=1170 you'll now see something like http://noblepagan.com/f2/official_october-1201/. Not only is this abit easier on our eyes as humans, it makes the entire site that much more crawlable by the search engine bots. Basically all last night was nothing but optimizations of the code so that google and yahoo! and Bing can scoop up our data and present us to the world.

Now that it is finished, we get to work on getting our name out there. I'll be discussion this with the staff members and anyone else that wishes to assist in this fashion.

Now for the bad news:

I lost my job yesterday. After 5 years of loyal service to this company and busting my ass, even to the exclusion of my family at times, on-call 24/7 for 5 years straight and a number of stressful, all night repairs, they summarily let me go. I don't wish to get into the details of why, because honestly I'm still quite confused as to why myself. That said, I'm jobless, but not helpless.

I welcome any help or kind words, cus quite frankly I need them, it's going to be a rough patch, but we've been through much more dire circumstances than this in the past. The difference is that we actually have some money saved up to be able to survive for a while. I've started putting out feelers around the states and have gotten a couple bites, but I'm really holding out for a position back home in the Pacific Northwest.

It's an interesting feeling going from $80,000 a year to nothing in 3 minutes flat ...

I'll be around alot due to this. So keep your heads high, and I'll try to do the same.

Well I will send a prayer your way to get the job you want so you dont have to suffer for long...

Thank you. I really do need the emotional support right about now. I can see myself wanting to dive into fits of depression, but I'm fighting that. I need to keep myself undepressed because otherwise I'll just go completely redneck white trash out here ... stained wife beater and all ...

Now that's a lovely image CR. Just remember what a bozo your boss was. Everything happens for a reason, maybe this is just a little extra push to get you where you need to be. Though we didn't make quite what you were, my husband and I have both been unemployed at the same time so I know what it's like.

It's a very emotional time. *hugs* I don't know if you are married to the idea of staying where you are but I live in deaths waiting room and they are always hiring someone for something (would you believe at one point I was installing and uninstalling CT machines? Yeah) at these hospitals around here. I can keep an ear out for you if you like

Yay on the updates though
