Hello PF,
I'm in a state of shock right now and can't really think straight. I just found out a couple hours ago that I'm losing my job in September. The Federal hiring freeze & staff caps are affecting term-employees from being converted to full-time employees, and the upper management of my office entirely mismanaged their staff roster.
This was my first "real job" with a salary and benefits that I secured after grad school, one that I had to fight tooth and nail for. I've aggressively been eliminating my debt as I thought things were going to be worked out (or so my boss told me), so my savings are low. That was a mistake, in retrospect. I've been making long-term career plans to take advantage of the tuition assistance program my (soon-to-be former) office offers to learn Computer Programming in the Fall. Now that's not happening anymore. I have 5 paychecks remaining.
I feel lost, like my entire plan was just ripped out from under me. What do I do now?
Any advice is appreciated.
