    Default The economy finally caught up with me

    Well, I was working for an LED display company and that industry is usually a year or so behind the economy. Today it finally caught up with me and I got laid off. I'm sure I'll find work but that I hate looking for a job.

    That is a bummer. According to the latest stats things are picking up a bit. Hope you find something soon.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Best of luck getting situated. Looking for jobs does suck, but in the meantime, I'd recommend enjoying some time off. You deserve it!

    Take care

    Ones someone said
    The happiest person in the earth is

    Person wakes up in the morning at 8 oclock and runs to work.
    Person at 4 o'clock after work runs back home.
    if you have that 2 you are the happiest person.
    People ask explanation he said.
    You love your job you run to start doing it, as soon as work time up you love your family so much you run back to spend time with them.

    Sorry to hear bad news,

    I think Ogle already gave you a good advice while trying to get a new job. For what i've heard the Led is an industry with growth to expect in nearby future so i hope you'll get a new job soon.

    Thanks for the encouragement guys. I liked my job but I'll find another. I've never had much of an issue finding work.

    I feel your pain and welcome to my boat. I've been looking for a job for over a year and decided to heck with it and went back to school to get into dental. You'll do fine!

    Hate hearing this.... very very sorry.

    Hope you find something sooner then later.

    Staying positive and getting your resumes out there and networking with everyone you know is the best way to get in somewhere.

    Best of luck !
