We got a newly elected Prosecutor in November who had told us assistant prosecutors that we were going to be retained. Now it turns out that he just wanted to keep us around to keep the place running until he takes over Jan 1. Me and the other assistants have now been told "You are not going to be part of the new team." My last day is Dec. 31. Quite the Christmas present. Not sure what the hell I am going to do as I loved this job and had planned on sticking around for quite a while.
I'm a bit in shock as I really didn't plan on looking for a new job at my age (51). Fortunately, back when he won the primary in August I started saving money like mad if for some reason I was fired. So things should be ok for a few months, but the thought of having to look for a new job sucks bigtime!

Wow, that's low - even from a lawyer.
In difficulty lies opportunity. . . I hope that you have strength and comfort in what is undoubtedly a difficult time and that you are eventually able to pick yourself up, dust yourself off and turn a negative into a positve for yourself.
Have you considered going into practice for yourself? Might be the perfect opportunity. . .
Hang tight and be strong - hope it all works out okay for you. Sorry to hear what happened, but just don't let it get you down.
