I can relate to the title of the thread. I didn't exactly 'lose' jobs, but we parted not-so-amicably in my last few jobs, although the contract ran out, and all was glossed over, I was glad to be rid of them, it's still a bit anxiety-inducing to think of a 'next' job.

Maybe by saying goodbye to those jobs that clearly didn't have your standards or wishes, you are opening doors to a new job/career that will be better? Could you open your own shop and be the boss?
