Nothing is more disheartening than being told you no longer have a job. Fear strikes hard as the individual worries about how they will met financial demands. Self confidence drops to the basement. PINKSLIPPED deals with the heart of this experience.As always, Romina Wilcox never fails to provide the reader with a character that they can associate with. The economic turmoil that has left many jobless, particularly in the Silicon Valley, is felt through the experience of Jennifer Tesler -the main character in this work. The reader will find a character with emotions and dreams that are similar to their own. Even if the readers has never been through a down sizing themselves, they will feel in tune with a character that has the same expectations in life as they do. Although particularly relevant for the career woman who has lost a job, anyone -male or female-who has moved through the corporate jungle will find comfort in the parallels between the struggles of the main character and those of their own.In the end, the reader will find it hard to let go of the new "friend" they find in Jennifer Tessler and the comfort she gives. You are not alone. Things have a way of working out-faith will reward the patient.
