What's Your Spectacular Comeback Story?

We read about the wealthy and famous who make big mistakes and yet are able to resurrect their own careers. Of course, it's easy for them, they've got money and connections, right? Well, yes. It's always easy to make that "risky" career move when you have a hundred million dollars sitting in a bank account just in case your venture isn't successful.

But, what about normal people? People like you. Have you ever failed? Been fired? Been kicked to the curb? If you have, and you've bounced back I'd like to hear about it. Send an e-mail to EvilHRLady@gmail.com with "Comeback" in the subject line, or leave a comment here. 

On December 20th, I'll publish the best stories. If you have a company website, I'll even link to that, if you desire. Of course, if you want to remain anonymous, we can do that too.
