I started in my current position in mid-july. I had just gotten out of the military, and this was my first job after separating. I moved across the country to a tiny town with no other prospects, and no family within 1000 miles.

We got sent home early Friday, right before a town hall that put the news that probationary employees would be fired.

I've lived with that hanging over my head all weekend.

Tomorrow, I'll get up at 6am, report to work by 6:30, just like I have for the past 7 months. Except this time, I won't be bringing a lunch, and I expect to be home before the sun rises.

Wish me luck.

UPDATE

Veterans have been removed from the list to be fired. So I'm almost certainly fine.

Whether personnel who are in a new probation period based on switching positions are safe is still questionable.
