Rewrite a happy ending!

Handed a "pink slip" and you immediately break out into a cold sweat! But hold up, wait a minute! Calm down and come at a "lay-off" from a positive viewpoint.

While you dig in, dust off your interview suit and update your resume, do some some self- assessment. Before you got caught, all the way, up in a 9-5, you were writing, painting and sewing pillows for the craft fair. So, while you're out there, applying for your unemployment benefits, stop by the hobby shop and pick up some paints, paper and an easel. Re-ignite your passion! Make a bartering deal with your local community center and invite your friends and family for a showing~ You will get your work before an attentive crowd and you may even make a sale or two!

Word of mouth could enable you to slide that interview suit back into the closet; resumes into the shredder.

You get my drift...turn that "pink slip" into a congratulatory bouquet of pink roses!
