In this case I saw the roadsigns for a long time and have been preparing for the turn but still, when it arrives it's a mixed basket of feelings.

I work for IBM and on 06/12 I was informed there was a "Resource Action" and my services would no longer be required as of 07/12/2013. In other words - I am laid off.

Good news is I get a decent separation package and even better is my snake hobby/business is built up to the point of my original "plan B" of it being my full time job is viable. I've said for many years I finally figured out what I wanted to be when I grew up - snake breeder. Now it's time to transition to my dream job!!

Maybe . . it was meant to be. :)

Grats on the full time business and I wish you all the luck in the world Dave.

Ha! That's what you think. Your customers will become your new boss. Welcome to the small biz world. Parts of it are awesome, and other parts stink.
