Light some candles, shake the beads - I need all the luck I can get

[radfringe]

Just got laid off as of today, and I join the ranks of the unemployed.
So when you see the job numbers for unemployed - I'm one of them

One possible saving grace - I have a job interview on wednesday 3/28 -- and when they ask me how soon can I start, I'll reply: Give me a couple of minutes to use the restroom, and where's my desk"

1. I wish you much good luck.

I hope you get a better job, with better benefits, better pay, with a better employer, and great co-workers.

And after all of that, tell us who that exceptional employer is. :)

2. sending you good thoughts and vibes

I'm sorry to hear about your job :hug: and I hope that the interview on 3/28 goes well. :hug:

Are you going to apply for unemployment pay?

3. going to sign up on Tuesday

have to wait one full "work" day (which would be monday) before I can sign up

meanwhile, my health insurance is now Pray-Go, as in Pray I don't have to GO to the doctors

4. good deal

I hate dealing with that bureaucratic crap but the sooner you get it started the better. I know about the health insurance, I just bought a catastrophic policy with a really high deductible just in case something really serious happening. Good luck with the interview. :hi:
