Please send positive thoughts my way. I will be finding out tomorrow if they are going to outsource my department at the hospital I work at.

What is even worse, it look's as though my DH may loose his job in November if the voter's decide to close the casino's in the city he work's in. Yikes!:(
 
Aww...sorry Laurie - we'll pray that your dept. stays or there will be a good position for you!Start planning now! Cut back now with what you can and save all you can!
 
So sorry for this, Laurie. My husband has been cut at work also....I am hoping for both of our families and others in the same boat that the election will turn the tides....

or that McCain will let us all live in his 8 houses.

PRAY & VOTE!

We are all in this together. Hope you feel the hugs. Check your PMs.

I'm so sorry Laurie. I will be praying for financial freedom for you and your family and for you to be prosporous as God intends for us.
 
(((hugs)))
 
Prayers said for you and DH. Even if God closes those doors, I pray he opens BIGGER and BETTER ones for you both!
 
Sending positive thoughts your way Laurie.
 
Prayers for you & DH. Keep your eyes on God. He'll show the way!

Well I found out we will not find out until Thursday or Friday. My boss doesn't think it is going to hit staff, just management, but I am still worried. :confused:

DH works in Lakewood.

I can understand what you are going through... It took me almost 5 months to find work after I lost my job, and DH is on his 5th month without a job as well. I will pray for you and your DH!

PM me if you ever need to talk or vent or cry... I'm here for you. Sorry this is such a blah post, I'm wiped out and just took some Nyquil and I'm feeling a bit groovy... ;)

Saying prayers for you and your hubby, Laurie. Even if your manager doesn't think it'll affect you, one never knows now-a-days.

Sending good vibes!

Laurie, keep us informed. I'm praying that God would just come over you and wash you with His peace that surpasses all understanding...

Blessings! :)

I will pray for you Laurie. When I worked at Staples our department (finance)
was outsourced to South Carolina! So many people lost their jobs. I only hope you don't have to experience that. :angel:

UpdateStill no news. :( So I guess no news is good news.

The decision was suppose to be made yesterday and I leave at 2:30 pm, so I can pick up my oldest DS from school. I didn't hear anything this morning when I came in. My boss is awesome and keeps us in the loop as much as he knows.

Thank you for keeping me in your prayers. I PROMISE I will let you all know as soon as I find out anything.

There is still no news. My boss is getting more and more frustrated as we all are. We just want to know if we have jobs.

There are so many rumor's going around the hospital right now, it is difficult to know what to believe. I am just trying to keep positive and work PC really hard right now.
 
  • #37
Stay positive and know God won't put you in a position you cannot handle. I will continue to pray for you.
 
  • #38
Just saw this, so sorry to hear it, hopefully you will be safe and not have to worry about it, but it stinks that ANYONE there has to lose their job!
I assume you will get a serverance if you do...
Praying for your husband as well...
 
  • #39
Still praying for you Laurie. Just think, the longer it takes them to tell you, the longer you have a job. I know it must be stressful, so staying positive and working your PC business hard right now are the best thing you can do.

((((HUGS))))
 

1. Will I be notified in person or through email about the decision?

Typically, employees are notified in person about job changes or decisions. However, in some cases, such as during the COVID-19 pandemic, companies may choose to communicate through email or virtual meetings.

2. What happens if my department is outsourced?

If your department is outsourced, it means that the company has chosen to hire an external company to handle the tasks or services that your department currently provides. This may result in your job being eliminated or transferred to the new company.

3. What can I do to prepare for the decision tomorrow?

While it's natural to feel anxious, it's important to stay calm and focused. Make sure to have all your work and tasks completed, and gather any important documents or information that may be needed during the decision-making process.

4. How can I stay positive during this uncertain time?

It can be difficult to stay positive during times of uncertainty, but try to focus on the things you can control, such as your attitude and mindset. Surround yourself with supportive friends and family, and remember that you have made it through tough situations in the past.

5. What are my options if my job is eliminated?

If your job is eliminated, you may have the option to apply for other positions within the company, or you may receive a severance package. It's important to speak with your HR representative to understand your options and next steps.
