O/T Lost my job

I know I'm not the first and won't be the last on here to loose their job but i just want to vent a little, but at the same time I guess that I'm lucky. I have a skill (electrician, anybody need one?) a lot of the people that I work with don't. And now it doesn't look like that I'm going to make it to the billet proof show. It's kinda hard to buy parts with out any fundage.

Good luck to everyone else who has lost their jobs as well. We all need it.

Man, I'm sorry to hear that.

I'd say, "Welcome to the club."; but this ain't a club anybody wants to join.
Good luck.

Re: O/T Lost my job

Sorry man. I know all to well how you feel. I'm nearing in on six months of unemployment. I was eleven years old when I started working. I have never had a problem being employed since. All I can say is "TRY" and then try some more. I have hundreds of applications out there yet I have had just five interviews with four employers so far. I'm in survival mode now and will take just about anything I can get. You have a specialized skill. I'm sure you could find some side jobs since everyone is spending in "Economy mode". Good luck. Keep us posted. PM me if you need any help or advice collecting bennies or seeking work.
