Speaking of My Job…

• Posted by Theresa on April 16th, 2006 filed in My Musings

Pretty soon I may not have my job at the furniture store.

• they are moving from high tech huge warehouse back into small shared space at former warehouse
• no more special orders allowed
• customer service only good for 30 days now
• no more deposits on orders, paid in full only
• no more holds on merchandise, must be delivered w/in two weeks
• lay offs at distribution center
• building up for sale, offers made
• rumors galore

Sounds like they are preparing for the worst. But at least they are preparing. The last furniture store that I worked for that went out of business was not so honorable. They took people’s money right up until the end knowing full well they wouldn’t be able to deliver.

I don’t even want to think about trying to find another job right now, so I hope they pull through. But I really think it is just a matter of when, not if. I am going to play it out until the end. There should be good money to be made in a GOB (going out of business) sale. I can’t even think about trying to find another job. It gives me a headache just thinking about it. I suppose if something landed in my lap I’d take a look, but I cannot begin that process again right now. I will relax for now and let things play out as they will.
