OT: didn’t get to read yesterday’s comments till now, and if you will bear with me, I’d like to say this: there were some trolls (or maybe just newcomers?) who stated their dislike that requests for financial assistance are posted in a comics comment section. I would like to thank those who took the time to point out to any newcomers that the BCN comments section is different from all others in that we feel we are part of an “ohana” (family in Hawaiian), and when you are part of an ohana, you share things of a personal nature (good news, bad news, requests for financial or emotional support). I personally thank Georgia and all Orbsters for creating this wonderful BCN comments section where I know I will always find kindness and acceptance. It is an honor to be a part of the BCN orb.
I wonder if that’s what the real Goldie was thinking and feeling when Georgia first took her in. Oh Goldie, I’m soooo happy you found your furever home!
@rs0204 – I’m so sorry to hear your news. Change is upsetting and scary. First, please take some time to rest and get your head together. The other Orbsters have given you some wonderful advice about unemployment and some job resources you can look into and I hope you will take their advice to heart. Personally, I have been laid off from full-time jobs about 3 times in my life; the last time was when I was 57 years old. I applied for unemployment (hey, like BillJackson2 said, you’ve been paying into the system so now is the time to get some of YOUR money back), and put the word out to friends and relatives that I was looking for a job. One of my friends recommended me for a position at a company he was working for, and I wound up getting that job! Don’t give up; there’s something new and exciting waiting out there for you!
You meanie, trash panda! That’s what’s wrong with the world today, so much meanness and not enough kindness! Don’t you worry sweet Goldie, you’ll soon be blessed with the kindness of the Man and the Woman!
OT: I just read that Tuesday 10/29 is National Cat Day! Much purrs and hugs to Georgia’s wonderful BCN gang and to all of the Orb’s beloved kitties today and every day!
