I've been out of work twice in my ...Dear Nick,<br /><br />I've been out of work twice in my life. Neither time was giggles and rainbows. In one instance, I saw it coming and took steps to ensure I would find work quickly. I sent out 92 job applications with accompanying CV. One potential employer could not afford me, he said. Silly goose! One application delivered the goods, though. <br /><br />Read the many messages you've received. There's a shitload of good stuff therein. You've got a great attitude.<br /><br />Don't beat yourself over the job loss. You'll get past it.<br /><br />Are you eligible for unemployment benefits? If the answer is yes, get a move on! <br /><br />And don't grab just any job that comes your way. Choose wisely!<br /><br />CuddlycubAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3815657480507935797.post-54947709332803174692009-08-27T10:25:54.028-07:002009-08-27T10:25:54.028-07:00Hey Nick, Like everyone, I am sorry about your sit...Hey Nick, Like everyone, I am sorry about your situation. I too went throught the same thing. I was raised that you should stick with a company and it will do you alot of good in the future. WRONG!! I stuck with mine for 30 years. So I have specialized training for THAT job and nothing for the other measley jobs that are available. I have every confidence you will find something, and hopefully soon.

I make less money now than I did fifteen years ago (and only a bit more than half as much as I did when I was considered 'top earning'), yet I'm happier than I've ever been. However, I am consistently surrounded by negative, ugly, and conniving people who will do anything or everything they can to bring everyone they come in contact with down to their level. I can't and don't play into it.<br /><br />I'm sorry you've lost your job and I am sending my positive thoughts and energies to help you in your quest for what's next in life.Robert A.

I lost my good job back in 2001 and spent 18 months looking for work before getting a job at a big box retailer at 40% cut in pay. It sucks but it pays the bills and now a little extra.<br /><br />I agree with everyone else here. Apply for your unemployment benefits at once. Secondly, take any job you can get even it seems way below your standards. If it pays the bills, it's a good job.<br /><br />Up here in the mitten state, graphic designers make around $8 an hour from what I've seen on craig's list. What a bunch of cheap asses! I would almost have to take a %50 pay cut to take one of those jobs.blacknoonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03884696337172447831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3815657480507935797.post-66403699130637751232009-08-26T18:44:26.424-07:002009-08-26T18:44:26.424-07:00"makes" reeds ... lol.

Jeesh, some people's children huh?<br /><br />Anyway, just wanted to add my condolences to your news about the job. You know I've been there too and will be again, and it's rough, no doubt about it, but we do survive these things. The experience I'm having right now would not have happened had my work in Toronto not disappeared.<br /><br />You'll land on your feet, and my guess is that you'll be better off. Hey, if worse comes to worse, I'll teach you to makes reeds and we can start a reed company together.
