Got fired today, two kids and a wife!

Hey there everyone

I was fired today for something incredibly trivial
Don't really know what to say.

Companies shutting down anyway and they need to get rid of people without paying redundancies. So yeah I was caught doing something ridiculously trivial and I've been fired after 5 years of service. Also I laid a complaint against my team leader like a week ago so I geuss this is retaliation. One word C**T!

Ive got two young sons and a wife. Im the only earner in our house.

Sort of taking this as a sign from the gods that its time to make money off of my hobby.

Pretty gutted right now. Looking at my kids hoping we'll be alright. I hope I can keep paying the bills, but I doubt it.

Oh well on the up side Im due to harvest my buds on Sunday.

Sorry to hear about your situation. Be prudent with your hobby. Hard to make a living off of it and keep out of the rookers of the law. You've got a wife and kids to think about...Be well

Sorry had to change the story I suddenly realised this could end up in the hands of my employer if someone googles what Ive done to see if I can be fired, and that would be a disaster!

Hey Hun,
It is so horrible to lose a job as the only money maker or as you said bread winner, I have been there myself. I raised my kids as a single mom and I lost jobs here and there. Its never easy and I always blamed myself it took me until 2 yrs ago when my son actually told me he did not blame me for his difficult growing up, to realize that these things are just the bad part of what is otherwise when you can see it a wonderful life. I would love to be of service to you in your time of need. I do not mean breaking any rules or anything like that I am talking about finding you a job. If you feel comfortable talking about it with a stranger let me know what you do and I will help any way I can.

Gutted for reading that.
But behind all shitty events there is a silver lining and i trust that you are going to find yours soon enough.
Keep your head cool, use your time to consult your family about their fears&needs while sharing your own with them and please don´t try to find the solution for your problem at the bottom of your herbs jars ;)
I would start looking for a new way of supporting my family asap and i would avoid dark thoughts relating with what happened and should not have. The show must go on and you still got everything to make it happen. Family, health, safety and liberty are all that a man needs for a fresh start.
Sorry if i come across patronizing or even talking from my own ass :( that was never the point and i must end by saying that is a very fucked up situation that would leave any sensible person distressed and worried, my comment is just trying to bring some good light to a shitty day, sorry if i couldn´t.
All the best for you and your family
 
It might look bad now, but everything happens for good reason. Bealive in that and you will find yourself in much better place in no time.

I am very sorry to hear about your sad situation bro!
Keep your head up! don´t let you push down by such persons...
Of course money is important, we can´t "survive" without it...
But hold yourself up, at least at the moment, that you can be so lucky that you have a family that you are loving and for that you would do nearly everything; thats wonderful! So you can be sure that they will love you as well, you are not alone, you will all hold together, especially now!

I think when the situation/the big thing that is steering us doesn´t let you any chance at the moment and you feel comfortable with it, start growing, why not!!!
I think thats okay, you are not doing it for the money, for materialism or luxury to profit greedy from it.
You are just earning the money your family needs to survive and live "normal"...like a fruitfarmer, there is nothing reprehensive on it....

But i would suggest to inform yourself a bit about several issues that are connected to the project you wanna start concerning electricity(-bill), distributing, noise, logistics and so on.

I wish you and your family All The BEST! If you are in trouble let us know, i think we, at least me, are always on this place with an open ear for you!!!


high regards & The Best Wishes
sends you
Hazeo
