another punch to the stomach

well i made it through the holiday season alive...it was crazy..i feel as if this is quite the feat, i think that maybe i even deserve a gold star...
i finally feel somewhat confident in my job, I have earned the respect of my boss, co-managers and associates that I supervise. I have shown them all that even though I may look about 12 years old I am a strong person, a hard worker, confident leader and pretty good at what I do.
I was beginning to think, so this is what it is like when a team of people work well together, but then came the punch to the stomach or the kicker as some may call it.
Enter happy monday meeting, in which we usually spend 3 hours discussing store stuff that could be covered in 30 minutes if it wasn't for us all interjecting with stories and dirty jokes.
As I enter I notice the grim face of my boss..what we thought was a monday meeting about our upcoming inventory turned into something different quite quickly...
our district manager...the head honcho.. was there, and she had good news and bad news....
insert nervous worried faces of my coworkers and i
she was starting with the bad news.....
as of march 14 our store would be closed.
insert deer in the headlights looks on all of our faces.
the store would be closing because of its lack of business...in its hey-day it was the busiest store around, but now since the area has turned into slightly ghetto and two other locations in much better neighborhoods have opened up our store is losing its ground.
the good news...we still all have a job somewhere (sigh of some sort of relief)
so that was the meeting..
none of us know where we will be working in 3 months, we will be working somewhere but not necessarily actually in a position, more like a floater, filling in where needed at whatever store needs help. do not get me wrong, i am very happy i still have a job, but i am so bummed. i was just getting the hang of all this, and just really liking the team i was working with, we had actually finally bonded. i am going to miss my team so much : (
i know i will be fine, every store has great people, but`damn...back to not knowing where i will be in 3 months...its the last 9 months or so all over again.
so thats the kicker, the punch in the stomach.
i will update more as the situation evolves.
also. i would like to note, that who i work for...is handling this very well, no one is being let go off, no one part time, full time or any managers, we will all be absorbed into other stores, what an amazing thing for a company to actually offer its employees.
