Just Got Laid Off

Switched jobs last June and just got laid off... (Fired) .. Scary not knowing what to do... What is going to happen... etc etc...

About this time I am wishing I hadn't taken out a loan for a new roof...

I'm sure it will be alright... its just scary.

I was a computer/network/telephone tech... I have a lead on a new job, but I really liked the old one. I'll be looking in the NC Kansas area. Who knows maybe I'll start my own business doing something I like.... Anyone want to hire a guide for 4 wheelin' .

I am sure that with a high demand skill like yours, that you will be back in work in no time. I know it's a bummer to lose a job you like, but I am sure that things will get better soon.

When one door closes, another always opens. You are talented enough to find a job to your liking. Don't be afraid to substitute momentarily for a lesser job till you find the right one. Keep your head up and you back straight my friend!
Keep us up to date. We are their for you in spirit!!!!!!

Sorry to hear that Chad. I'll vouch for your new Guide Service. I would have been lost a few times out at Tuttle if it wasn't for you.
