wow. ... I was going to write how dreadful this must be for you. But really, after the shock's worn off, will it be anything more than inconvenient? For a while? Because beyond a paycheck, has this job brought you anything worthwhile? If not, then you've got pretty convincing impetus to find something new now, right? I think you're reasonably financially responsible, so you likely have some breathing room (and that's before you apply severance and unemployment to the equation). So take that slack to relax and reflect, vent some steam. Then, when you're decided and ready, you can add "focused" to your bandoleer of professional qualifications, right there along with talented, skilled, experienced, and all the rest of the deadly ammunition you pack. In the meantime, though, know that you are surrounded by cohorts all at the ready with a stiff drink, a friendly game, a sympathetic ear, or overblown advice. ;-)
