When I got fired from my bank job back in '05. I picked my last check and drove to Starbucks and sat in their patio area for about 3 hours. Realizing that I have no have job and thinking how the F am I going to pay my bills? A few days later, I swallowed my pride and went to one of those job agencies. About a week later I got a call saying that they have a whs job for me. I took it. Honestly it wasn't too bad. Met some cool people. Took a while to snap out of that "I got fired" funk. Luckily my girl at the time was very supportive. I had to go to the agency weekly to pick up my check. On one of those days, I ran into one of the guys I worked with back at the bank. Since the checks were drawn off the bank that I worked for, he was there promoting free checking accounts for people who were interested. I don't know why, but it just felt so degrading running into him. For the 3 months that I worked at that whs, living paycheck to paycheck, it just does something to you. Never want to have to live through that kind of emotion ever again.
