Having been a business owner myself for a few years, I can say the most difficult task of all is to let someone go that you feel is an asset to your business because you have nothing for them to do. I'm sure your former boss feels more like a failure than you believe you are right now & he probably won't sleep any better than you the next few nights. It's a compliment to you that it upset him to let you go. I've had to let people go in the past when I actually slept BETTER after they were gone. I don't believe this is the case here.
Just remember, it's not how many times you fall, everybody does that. It's how many times you get up - and how fast. :thumbs_up:thumbs_up

I can't thank you all enough for your prayers, thoughts, kind words, advice, pm's and support. :notworthy::notworthy::notworthy::notworthy::notworthy: This was a decision made by the owner of the company to replace me with one of his old friends. We were as busy as we've ever been, but I think it all came down to that (on a lot of levels). A 50 year-old guy with a wife and two children probably needs this job more than I do and I hope he succeeds.
Everything happens for a reason. I don't fully understand the reason right now and may never fully understand it, but I know that there are better opportunities out there and that as long as I keep the faith, everything will work out. :icon_thum
I really can't thank you all enough for your help and support. :icon_thum
Thanks fellas. :notworthy:
I am/was a Water Mitigation Manager at a restoration company (Fire/Water damage, etc). But that job description is a lose one. I did everything from demolition to carpentry, of course mitigation, and also punch list items.
My previous job was the Marketing Manager for another restoration company. I marketed to insurance adjusters, property management companies, hotels, apartments, etc.
In addition to that, I've worked in almost every area of hotels. Front desk, bellstand, maintenance, spa.
None of these really go with my degrees which are Bachelors in Finance and Marketing from UNCW. :gar-La;
I would be interested in anything that is related to my past experience and skills. I'm not interested in commission only positions.
Thanks so much!
