Hello Chan,

It's a terrible feeling.  But it's not the first time it's ever happened to someone.  It's actually pretty common...even a couple of times in your career if you're unlucky.  Lucky or not, it happens to many of us.  Some of us actually survived it???!!

Here are a couple of tips (Easy to give...hard to follow...I know that...but I'm going forward anyway)

1. Be as pleasant as possible.  Smile (It will go towards creating your own atmosphere) (Besides...a good attitude really goes a long way)

2. Do your job as best as you are able.  (People see, and people observe, they don't always say).

3.  Put in a good, honest hard day at work (enduring all and smiling as much as you can and being pleasant).  Go home and relax.  Do what you like to do and put all that rubbish behind you.

...When you get to be the boss...and you will....throw all those weenies out of there!  Only kidding...just a little levity.

Keep your eyes open for opportunities...and most of all...hang in there sport!  Most of us have been through that.
