Damn it lost my job today

[seanR]

I used to think my Government job (USDA) was secure, but now they are talking about cutting back and not filling in after employees retire etc. So now I have that to consder, but seeing how farming is another source of my income, the Gov job is mainly for the benefits and insurance but I would really feel it without the added income. It is bad when even Government jobs are not secure......

Yea, because the food industry doesn't need any over site...

That sucks man, hang in there. You'll find something sooner or later.

Times are so bad that my base is hiring a Janitor and over 50 people have applied for the single position.

Guys I feel all of your pain. I was laid off last march and have been a stay at home dad. I thought that will be cool at least I can get some work on my XJ. Now I didn't realize that you can only work on it if you have the money to fix what you "repair" LOL. You unemployed guys can come and help me watch the kids if you want. It's like a party without the beer or good times. Just as much vomit and poo though.

Blake what school district do you work for. And I've been in your neck of the woods quite a bit lately.

sorry to hear this. If you are looking for side work, I have 2 small parts that I need someone to measure correctly in MM and transfer to CAD drawings for me. Send me a PM if you are interested.

The stay at home dad thing isn't a bad deal. Pajama pants and t-shirts all day. Naps when the little one naps. Gotta love it. The downside is not alot of stimulating conversation. I've also found that I have become more absent minded. It was/still is a hard change of lifestyle to get used too. basically 15 years of getting up and going to work everyday to getting up and changing a diaper. I can't wait till the little one hits school age so I can find a daytime job at oriellys or napa.

I do work in the evenings and weekends so we are able to atleast stay somewhat current on bills.
