23. We are all here for you and your husband

You never know who a DUer is. It could be your husband's next employer. Realistically, we are a fraternity of people that believe in basically the same principles. One of those is that we are here for you. Everyone wants to help someone who is down. If we were all perfect, we wouldn't be having this conversation. Wherever you are located, tell your husband that he needs to make sure his new job (the one at hand now) is to find another job. Get up at your regular time and hit the internet. I did this and had great results. A friend of mine lost his job due to the government contractor he worked for losing a major contract. We worked together via email, etc. to get his resume readable and acceptable to give to prospective employers. It took about three months, but he found work and is making more than he was before. I'm thrilled for him. I got an email that had three words in it "We did it!!!" That's all I needed to see. I know your husband can do this and he will find work. Being patient and being positive are the key.

Good luck and stay in touch.
