Thanks for all the kind words, folks. I've still got until the end of the week at Woodmaster, then I can apply for unemployment if nothing else comes along.

The slightly depressing bit is that both mine and my wife's schedules worked out almost perfect with each other. Any other job I get is most likely going to conflict with hers.

The one good thing is if I can get the sparky job, she'll be able to pretty much quit her job and we'll financially be in the same boat we are now.

So hopefully all your well-wishing has a good effect!! :)

Thanks again for listening to my sob story. I really do appreciate all the good "vibes". ;)

One bad side to it all is it appears the added stress has made my psoriasis act up again..... :(

P.S. The company owners really winced when I muttered something to the effect of, "Merry ****ing Christmas to us, huh?"

That is harsh, especially just before Christmas.

I'll be keeping my fingers crossed that your interview for the new job goes well - really hope you get it! :)

Best of luck, I have always thought you were a genuinely nice bloke so I am sure you will do well with any jobs you apply for.


Wish this were true, but it appears that nice guys finish last...... ;)

Anyways, appears the guy is pretty busy at the moment as he wasn't in again today. Left another message and hopefully will get to talk to him on the weekend.

One thing that might be good is if I go on a short stint on unemployment is to finally get the chance to catch up on my Honey-do(tm) list around here. Got about 3 months worth of work to do on the house, about two weeks worth to do on the three cars, and about 6 months worth to do on the garage. Should be able to catch most of it up in about a week or two.... :D
