@grammyn it is turning out to be REALLY difficult to tell a complete story using haiku... they reorganized my workplace and I read the plan only to find that they had cut my job. I spoke with Dean later and found that it was a mistake (double listing of a different position that had been cut). Until I found that out, though, I lived in quite a different and new reality.
@francoise well I got the basic gist of the story from your haiku but the details definitely needed some fleshing out. I can only imagine the stress until you figure out the problem.
