Default 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!!

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.

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)
