Yep. I'm out of work.
In agreement with my boss, we've terminated my contract due to illness. I came down with a case of stress and had a sick leave as you may know. I tried beginning again but pushed myself too hard and in the end I had to quit. Luckily my boss' been very generous with me so I'll stay an employee until the end of July and will thus recieve pay but not work.
Nothing more to say right now - still need to iron out the very last details. It's a pity but my health is the most important thing - so luckily I will not be forced to find work right away since I am a paid employee until the end of July.

You ought to seek proffesional help to deal with that stress you sick person, since apparently you can't handle it as it is now. And knowing how to handle stress is a must in today's society. Hope you'll get well soon btw. Übereil

Oh, and thanks to everyone for the well wishes

That's a darned shame, Peter. I know that job meant a lot to you. It's good that you were able to leave on good terms, though. Enjoy a speedy recovery in the meantime, and hopefully you'll find something satisfying once you're well.
