Deanna, good ideas as well as good messages from all of the others. Not much else can be said. Just remember always, that you know in your own heart, what you’re worthy of, and that positive thoughts will display itself in your endeavors, and will help you. I would wish you luck, but I do not believe in luck. Everything happens for a reason...we just have to have a receptive mind. Sending good vibes to you.

[QUOTE=Haze;1399515]Sorry for the heartbreaking news, especially at this time of year.
My former employer closed the company in Pittsburgh last year at Dec 7.
After foundering for a while I found a new position with Panasonic in Reno, NV. near Tahoe.
Come and join us. Help is needed in all disciplines and Ryding in the desert and mountains is awesome.
Seriously PM me if you are considering moving to the Southwest[/QUOTE

I hope you are able to find a new job - if you really have to.
Honestly as I get closer to retirement getting laid off is something I fear as I will most likely not look for another job. I plan to retire in July 2021 - staying to get the post retirement benefits primarily full insurance from 62-65.
Love my Spyders

So, at the last opportunity, I decided to try to go into teaching math at the college level. I was able to be in the right place at the right time and landed a job at the local university four years ago. I make half the money I used to make, but I get my summers off (more riding time!), as well as the normal breaks during the school year. I love what I am doing and look forward to coming to work everyday. I don't miss the money and am much more optimistic about life in general.
The point being, don't be afraid to look around and see if there are opportunities out there that you may want to try, but never have due to the security of your current job. It may require some sacrifices, but true quality of life cannot be bought with just money! And besides, farkles can only bring limited happiness....the true joy is in the riding!
Good luck to you!
I have been looking around, I would like to stay working in the manufacturing field.
I wont have any problems finding work, because of my work ethic, and work experience/ and job knowledge.
