WAITING.....

Still waiting to be called back to work. I've been laid off since the third of February. I know that that isn't a real long time, and I know there are many people out there who have been out of work much longer than I have, but it seems like an eternity to me. We usually get really slow at work after Christmas and the last few years I would be laid off for a week, and then Fridays for several weeks in a row. This year is different. Nobody is buying anything.

There are no signs of being called back anytime soon either, and money is starting to get real tight. I'm glad that I had some vacation time coming. I had to use the two weeks I was due this year just so the Mrs and I could make it til warmer weather gets here so we don't have to use the heat so much.

I'm gonna have to start looking for work. Not easy to do when there just aren't any jobs to be had. My age doesn't make it easy either. So much for age discrimination being illegal.


I know this isn't exactly the same as the original post I had up, which somehow got lost, but it's fairly close.
