unemployment

The law firm where I work three days a week is dissolving.

This firm has been a Toronto institution for more than 40 years, and the news is rocking the Toronto legal community. My co-workers are all freaking out - and of course everyone will be going after the same jobs.

My situation is different, since I want to work on weekends. There aren't many weekend positions, but there are even fewer good people to fill them. Plus, I was already looking - trying to find something with better hours. Of course, I was hoping to be employed while I looked, but hey.

The firm is paying us until June 6. That's a decent amount of time to find something. And if nothing comes up, I can always temp.
