Not baby news, but good news anyway

Posted on Thursday, December 11th, 2008 at 2:45 pm

Well, I found out today I am not getting laid off from my job. The magazine I work for is shutting down its print edition, so I’ve been in limbo for a little while now waiting to hear what’s going to happen to me and the other magazine editors. The company laid off about 75 people, 12% of the total workforce, today, so it’s been a sad day in the office. But I’m very relieved to be keeping my job, although I don’t know the exact details of my new role. I am staying in my group and will probably be writing and editing for SearchStorage.com, the online partner of the now-shut-down magazine.

I figure I’ll worry about the details when I get back from maternity leave in March. In the meantime, I can relax and enjoy the next week or two, maybe going for long walks or eating spicy food or finding some other tricks to get this baby to move out!

    Congratulations on keeping the job. I am very happy for you. Now all you have to worry about is having the baby on the 22nd.

    That is good news, even if your job duties are still a mystery!
