Sometimes, your best just ain't good enough.
It's not that it isn't good. But somehow, somewhere, someone makes a decision that what you've been working on, the career you've made a life of, or perhaps, just perhaps, the revolution you've started is just too risky.
The latter is what appears to have happened this week to TBD.com, a revolutionary website launched in August in the Washington, D.C., area that was to present "hyperlocal" news on a variety of Web-based platforms using television, the Internet and increasingly ubiquitous social media.
I had been a journalist for 27 years when I was laid off the first time in December 2010, an event that left me looking for full-time work for 19 months and birthed this blog, originally called Laid off at 51: Seeking joy in change. In early 2014, after a little more than 30 years in the industry, I was laid off a second time. Change is inevitable, so now I seek a new career.
