DIABLO
The amazing stimulus package has driven my corp out of business, so I will be here rarely if ever for a while. Thanks for the forum, Rcade. It is a well thought out and fun website.
Sorry to hear of your employment problems. Seriously, why even with serious business troubles can't you blog on DR? Or, with this new change, do you just plan on being much busier now looking for work elsewhere?
No need to answer if you don't wish, but do you plan on relocating and/or looking for a different type of job? I ask because you shouldn't feel hestitant (or too proud) about putting out here on DR what type of work you're looking for or your basic resume.
Others on here know a lot of different people and maybe someone can hook you up with another person they know in the same field. And you could always exchange emails (for privacy) once you made an initial contact if you wanted to go into more detail.
Best of luck to you and your family, Diablo.
I'm very soon now going to go through some (to me) scary changes and unknown future plans within the very next month or two (moving to new state and having to try to find an apt. to live, then look for work, etc.) and the uncertainty of it all is the worst of the entire deal as far as I'm concerned.
I'm sure "uncertainty" is not a word you're having much fun dealing with right now either. But life has a habit of tossing things our way that can smack you upside the head when you least expect it.
You'll do okay, Diablo. There's another job out there no matter how dismal it may seem to you now. Like I said, the uncertainty and not knowing part is the worst but things will change for the better for you. It probably just doesn't seem like that now but you'll pull through and probably be all the better man for it. Let us know how you're doing.
