The HR thing I posted about never went away and I got fired today. Already applied for unemployment so at least I'll now get paid while I search for another shitty job and I won't be spending $300 a month on gas just to get to work.

It's kind of a relief in a way. This job was a major source of stress for me and it's not like I'm the only person they've fired recently. They've been letting people go left and right, getting rid of long-time veterans to cut down on wage costs I suppose, so I'll just take the L, chill the rest of the day, and try to get some things done around the house.

I'm pretty close to this point as well. My job should be good but it isn't and it sucks. I hate the software I have to use everyday and I don't like the people I work with.

I almost want to be let go so I don't have a notice period holding me up for my next role, but I also fell like it's too close to Christmas to take that chance
