Another economy victim

[IndyNova]

well, today I got laid off from my electrician's job, the company I worked for, (at one time, one of the biggest union contractors in Indy) is downsizing to under 40 people, and I was one of the unlucky ones! Just when I thought it was safe to start buying parts for my pt Nova, I'll have to use that money for other things now! I sure hope this economy turns around, and soon!!:mad:

That sucks. Sorry to hear that.
I've been laid off for almost a year now. I can't find a job anywhere. Times are still really tough. Keep your head up.:thumbsup:

Stay positive no matter what. Hey in some way shape or form you have better than somebody else. Always a bright side, you just might have to look a bit harder to see it these days.

ME TOO.....I START NEXT WEEK...

Ive had the worst year with the job situations in my 20 years working... Economy here has really taken a beating because of the lack of construction. That industry employed a ton of people in North/central florida and its dead.
Im not gonna say what im doing until i feel comfortable that its gonna last..:lol: But i have a good feeling about the opportunity ..

From what I see -- we are in the beginning of a turn-around.

Good to hear you two are a part of that! :thumbsup:

Remember -- even if 15% are unemployed - that means 85% are still working...

I now feel comfortable with telling you that the job looks like it will work out. my boss is great to work with.
Im Service manager for a very small Chevy dealer. I write all the service and handle pretty much everything. I only have two techs. Its busy enough to make my day go by pretty quick.
Anyway thats my deal... feeling better about things .
