Reccession hitting home

I too think that things happen for a reason so although it may be a bummer now, I totally agree with what Raul said and that things could be even better for you in the future!!

I'll keep you, and everyone else in the same situation, in my thoughts and prayers. Although it may be hard keep your heads up!

Aww, thats too bad...I'm sorry... Hopefully when all is said and done you will find some place you like that and one that treats you better. Good luck to you!

i too went through this back in 99 and it was quiet an experience.
its not that its a job but its more along the lines of the lifestyle or just not having that same check next week. this is probally the time where you will learn the most about yourself that you just never noticed or just never showed. all in all sure i was worked up about it when it happened to me but i was in a lame job and unhappy. it might take a week or 2 to feel good about it but im just going to say thats how family business is. if they cant make it this year they aint going to make it and if they dont their whole family will be not working. even worse how do you pick which family member gets laid off next.

just keep up your spirits and stay objective. have some fun. ILL unemployment isnt very bad its much more than the 390/ week we get in indiana.
