They are offering about half the positions than there are staff.  I could see this writing on the wall as the last 6 months to a year has been nothing but probing and inventory from our parent company. &#xA;&#xA;Ironically, I&#39;m not very distraught about the situation. See, I&#39;ve been building my business for 6 years now and officially on the books the last three. I continue to build my skill sets in various other aspects to make sure I am always a valuable asset. Call it a prepper mindset, call me a go-getter, call me a polymath. Whatever you want to call it, I&#39;m grateful for the choices I&#39;ve made to allow this situation to be more of an opportunity than a hindrance.&#xA;&#xA;I&#39;m now left with a choice to apply for a potential position at said Outsourcing company, find a job elsewhere, or take this opportunity to dive head first into full-fledged entrepreneurship. The choice between security and freedom. This is ultimately the hardest Choice people have to make not necessarily when it comes to a career but in all aspects of life. I&#39;m at the point where I&#39;m tired of the corporate game, tired of trying to prove my worth and tired of being one of the only employees who gives a shit.&#xA;&#xA;It feels like this is my opportunity to put everything into myself see if I really have what it takes to be a full-time entrepreneur instead of having three side gigs.&#xA;&#xA;The scary part is I have 5 other people depending on my success so failure isn&#39;t an option. &#xA;&#xA;Big choices are coming and I&#39;m excited to have these opportunities.&#xA;&#xA;#dailythoughts #gogetem  &#xA;&#xA;</html></oembed>
