Shawn...sorry to hear the prospects are dim...times are tough all over. One of the factories in town announced that they are going to be shutting down for 6 weeks starting April 20. My suspicion is that they won't reopen...I hope I'm wrong...but...I don't think so!!!

Have you thought of starting your own business...I see you're a hard worker...and a talented painter. I took a furlough from the car business a number of years ago and did some painting. It's hard work..as you know...but start up costs are pretty reasonable.
