It’s September. This morning the air was crisp and cool for the first time in months. It was a reminder of the impending changes coming in my life. At the end of September I will no longer be a Senior Designer. My work will be outsourced to a design agency and it will be up to me to find work and pay the bills. At least I’m guessing I have one month left. The guy at HR never showed to my “transition plan” meeting, so I continue to remain in the dark. I’m not a negative person, but that has been the existing state of affairs around here lately.

The design team has already partially disbanded during the initial mass lay-offs on August 7th, and now it’s up to me and the “Creative Services Manager” to hold the department together for the time being. He has a great sense of design and is one of the most ethical, honest and dedicated people I have ever worked with. Perhaps some day we’ll get to work together again. Sniff. No, I’m not going to cry.
