An update for the readers · 11:12pm Feb 3rd, 2021
Hey there, everyone. I wanted to give you all a heads up that the next chapter will likely be later than usual. The barn I work for is closing permanently this week and I've been turning my focus toward finding a new one in the meantime. Once that's sorted, I'll be back to writing on a hopefully normal schedule.
Thank you,
Ellie
Thank you for letting us know!
Stay safe, and good luck!
Focus on yourself first! We'll all be here when you get back, best of luck with the search.
Aww, that sucks on multiple levels. Hope you, the others, and the horses will all do OK!
I wish you the best of luck in your job hunt! I'm sorry to hear that that happened to you
All the best!
large oof
big luck
Oh, dear! Sorry to hear that. Good luck with finding a new one, and please don't worry about us while you get that sorted out.

Thanks, I've been sending my resume out since the beginning of the week. It's a little strange now that everything is online. The last time I applied for a job was when I took this one a decade ago. ><

We've contacted the owners and today will be the last day we spend trailering horses to be taken to other barns. At this point it's going to be a lot of packing and final paperwork until Sunday.

The joys of barn management, I feel like I have to focus on my employees until we're done. A lot of broken hearts this week and I've got people here who are in much worse financial situations than mine. I've been doubling as a counsellor since the news broke.

Thanks a bunch <3 I'm trying to stay positive that I might find something I enjoy outside of my current field, even in the temporary.

Ah; that presumably makes leaving this job even worse, I'd guess.
Will you have to move, too, or are there at least other suitable facilities in your area?
I'm sorry others there are also having hard times, though I suppose it's unsurprising, really. Good luck to them, as well, indeed. Sounds like it's a great pity, this.
(Thank you for providing what help you can to them.)

It's a rough time for a lot of people, the plant I was working at also closed its doors pemenantly. Good for you for helping others, I'm sure it will help a lot.
