I'm sorry to hear about "the news" at work and hope that you'll be able to work it out. It sounds pretty serious- at least the way you put it, but maybe it will be better tomorrow. Nice play on the words for today- and for a quick shot- it looks great.

Bulldog, I am so sorry to hear you've had bad news at work. I hope, by now, things won't seem quite so bad. Remember the time-honoured saying: Don't let the b--gers get you down! Thinking of you.
October 26th, 2012  
Very sorry for the bad news. Stylish shot!
October 26th, 2012  
Very stylish. Simple and effective. My daughter has a saying and it is "Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass, its about learning to dance in the rain". Hope you can find your dancing shoes. Have a quiet break away :)
October 26th, 2012  
Meant to Fav this great shot!

Hey Bulldog. My hubby got bad news at work last week too so I feel for what you are going through. This too shall pass. Stay well mate.
October 26th, 2012  
Great image.

Beautiful shot - hope things work out ok. :))

Sorry for the delay in response everyone but thank you all so much for your kind words if support.
Three thing I have learnt since a was threatened with redundancy:
1. Stay positive and tomorrow will not be as bad as you think
2. Your 365 friends will allways be there for for you.

And most importantly...
3."Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass, its about learning to dance in the rain" (thank you little Lucy)

This 365 site is amazing, there is something very special about seeing glimpses of the everyday lives ( or everyday sock-drawers ) of people and of course chatting to them too. We all seem to share a bond which is unexpected and nice.

October 28th, 2012  
Oh dear. I hope the threat passes and all is OK. You are right about 365, it is an incredibly supportive community. Your point 3 is incredible.

Congrats on PP, @gphelps5 !

October 28th, 2012  
This is so good! The shadow is cool and, ha, also a play on words. Niiice! =)
October 28th, 2012  
So sorry for your bad news at work. I feel for you. I used the quote about learning to dance in the rain during an extended period in which my dear father was dying and being forced to sell our family business due to the economy. Learning to dance in the rain is important because life is too short to waste any of it.
October 29th, 2012  
Thank you all for you supportive comments, I have a day off today and I have started detailing the job I current do (to justify my existence) and my CV, (in case that falls of deaf ears). I have a great weekend with my family and feel better thank I did last week,
:)
