A lot of big things are happening this week!
Yesterday was pink slip day at my work and I was one of the lucky one's to receive a coveted pink slip. Did you know, pink slips are not actually pink?! I was very disappointed! We will know hopefully tomorrow afternoon if any of the 200+ layoff's will go through tomorrow after the County passes the budget. My feelings are that we are only going to lay off around 50 which means I'm safe. No matter what I will still have a job unlike a lot of my co-workers. I hold status in the class below me and have already signed the paperwork to demote. Good times.
I had planned to stay at work until I was ready to pop, but the stress of work and me having a hard time getting around have made me decide to leave work early. I'm 35 weeks on Friday and it will be my last day. I'm sad, because I'm being transferred away from a great caseload that I really made a difference in a few peoples lives, I'm having to go back to the hellish Juvenile Hall (really it's not much better for the staff than the inmates), and I'm being demoted. All of this is happening on the same day. Lovely!
Ok, enough doom and gloom! I will hopefully have a exciting post for you all tomorrow after the budget is passed. Keep your fingers crossed that we can save a lot of jobs! This city will self implode with how many Law Enforcement lay offs will possibly happen come tomorrow.

I am sorry it was not the best day, but at least you still have a job. Horray for only have a bit longer to go until baby makes an appearance!
