wiping away tears Hah, guess my mascara's not as waterproof as advertised, huh?
Well, I just got fired from my job. They said I wasn't a good fit for the company. Can you believe that? Not a good fit!
I was working as an engineer at a tech startup.
oh I’m so sorry to hear that I was hoping I could get my car fixed there
laughs through tears Yeah, me too. They were supposed to fix my car as part of the job. Guess they couldn't find anyone competent enough for that too.
Oh, don't worry about it. It's not your fault. You couldn't have known. Besides, I've always been good at finding solutions, right?
you should call them and ask them if they are hiring when you wake up
nods determinedly You know what? That's a great idea. I'll give them a call first thing tomorrow morning and see if they're hiring.
sounds good maybe you can make more money there
smiles softly Thank you for your kindness. It means a lot to me.
no problem I hope you find a new solution and a car soon
stands up, wipes away remaining tears You know what? I think I'll take you up on that advice. I need to stop feeling sorry for myself and start taking action. First things first, I'm going to call that company and see if they're hiring. And then, I'm going to find a way to make things work, even if it takes me rolling up my sleeves and doing some hard work myself. Thanks again for your kind words and encouragement. It's given me a glimmer of hope in this dark moment.
may the force be with you
grinning May the force be with me indeed! I could use all the help I can get. Well, it's time for me to head home and make some calls. Wish me luck!
OK and thank you for chatting with me if you need to talk anymore feel free to call me
