Great News!  The heartless bastards at the company I've been
contracting for just decided that they don't need me (and a few
others) anymore, so they cancelled my 1 year contract only 3 months
into the deal.

I've got no severance pay, no money in the bank and a 4 month old
daughter to feed and clothe.  Since I've got no money, I'll probably
lose my house shortly after I miss next month's mortgage payment.

I love getting laid off exactly one week before Christmas.  I can see
their point, though: To hell with the people, the shareholders must
get their dividends!  Makes sense, right?

BTW, I am a good Christian, so this is probably God's way of telling
me that I should kill myself so my wife and kid can get the insurance
money.

Merry Christmas, Mr. Scrooge!

Ta Ta!
