Well thank you for all the well wishes....
Heres a little update..
I did contact the unemployment offie and got everything taken care of there. They offer a job search program there which i plan on taking full advantage of on wednesday.
But im also looking on my own as well, In the past few days i sent out a few resumes, filled out paperwork to try and get into the ironworkers local no17 apprenticeship, and i had my first interview today with a wine distributor. They distributors wine, beer, and liquior to stores and resteraunts(sp?). it really sounded like a cool job. and the interview went well i think. so cross your fingers... and hope i get it.
Thanks again for your thoughts and prayers....
Joe
