Another economy victim
 
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.

that sucks.

maybe update your location, maybe somebody knows something/somebody that can help.

(although I assume you live in the Indianapolis area)

I Got A Job !!!!

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...

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 .
