That was a very long sentence. are you drunk right now?

Cheer up man. Everyone has their down time. I'm sure life is not so bad. At least you're aware of your problems. Thats the first step towards improving your way of life.

Heres a sure fire way to turn things around.
Grab your rifle,shotgun,or bow and hit the woods.Even if all your doing is scouting out a place for spring gobblers,or next years buck.Just get out in the woods away from the world and its problems for a couple of hours.

Re: Layoff Officially Sucks

I am layed off for alittle this winter, since it is so could and crappy this winter. I know how you feel. The walletg gets thinner. I have heard this is the most depressing time of the year because you are lacking vitamin D from the sunlight. So brother grab a frosty one and sand in front of those halides in a thong and call me in the morning. Dr's orders. This is why I lost my license. Can anyone change my name. I had afew the night I signed up and spelled my sons name wrong. It's ok because he is only 7months old now and is just beginning to read.

I am not drunk "right now" but there might be a pretty good possibility that I was at the time of the post. Life isnt that bad just was frustrated at the time and glowing just a bit<bacardi is good> So let the goofing begin. Sorry for the drunk dial try not to let it happen again. This is the best forum that I have ever found by the way, like a big extended disfunctional family love it and in time hope to be able to contribute more than in the off forum topic.

You have no idea, man... You should have seen what I went through in my personal life in 2007. Any of the "Old Timers" know... Freak, Yote, Doc, Redline...

I was part of that mess, too, young lady. But if it wasn't for all that drama I would not have you for the best freind that you are. I'm having a moment.

Re: Layoff Officially Sucks

I got fired a couple months ago for some BS reason and I haven't worked since. Lost my job on November 1st, 2007. Just 2 weeks before my B-day. Life is rough right now. Thanksgiving sucked. Christmas sucked. New Years sucked. My wedding anniversary on Jan 12th sucked. Valentines day is just around the corner and my wifes birthday is Feb 20th. Life sucks ass right now. My savings account has shrunk to just a few thousand dollars. Not enough to make it another month. I've been busting my ass to find a job in my industry (HVAC) but I can't make any headway. I can't work in the field anymore and wear a toolbelt (long story-back problems) so the only jobs I can do are office jobs (Project Manager, Estimator, Salesman).

I've started applying at Home Depot and the local grocery stores. Even applied at a McDonalds and Subway. I need something just to make ends meet or we're gonna end up homeless.

I started selling toys last week. Sold a couple big airplane engines and some kits I had squirreled away for lazy winter projects. Sold my 24" PC light. Sold my spare refugium. I'm trying to sell airplanes and servos on RC websites.

I can't even count on a tax return. Uncle Sam says I owe him $721. Bastard!!

If y'all don't see me around for a bit, it's because my phone got shut off.
