Bad news: I'm going to be losing my job.

Why? My employer, BigLots suffered chapter 11 bankruptcy several months ago and now our hopes of rebounding has gone up in smoke since the company’s closing sales agreement with Nexus Capital has failed. As a result, going out of business & liquidation sales are now underway and we’re getting laid off soon.

I was hired back in May of 2021 and was able to start working almost immediately following an instant in-person interview after I inquired about their open positions. I stuck with them ever since and got a reliable source of income. As a result I was able to pull more of my own weight around the house and help out my family when needed.

I’ll still be employed but I expect things to officially end once everything gets sold and or enough time has passed, 2 months at most, just in time for the upcoming Trumpocalypse / Muskagedden.

Dark days are ahead…
