well it's official. unemployed as of tomorrow. not sure what's going to happen. jobs are scarce apparently. worried about eviction :S

Sorry to hear that JL. This economy sucks,and before its done crumbling, I am afraid alot more of us willbe in the same boat.
Will keep you in our prayers, something will work out....

jimmy, I'm sorry to hear about your job, and your home. This economy blows, but maybe all those smug economics commentators will be right about Canada's economy being in relatively good shape and you'll find a new job fast.

thanks guys. i've been trying even for joe jobs and the answer is not even no, i'm just getting ignored

jimmylegs, you have always been a big help to me with information and support. I will pray that a job of your dream finds you soon. Please don't despair. I hope to soon find published papers by you about nutritional supplements and healthy living!

Your internet friend, Sandy Kay

Sorry to hear that, JL. Hopefully you will find something soon. With the research skills and knowledge you've shown just at TIMS, I'm sure that you're more than qualified for a lot of things.

thanks guys.

someone at work who knows about my troubles gave me a bit of money today.. made up the bit i was missing for tomorrow's rent. i helped her use nutrition to get pregnant after a year and a half trying without success. baby's due later this year. at least now it's august 1st to worry about not july 1st!!

px, i think being more than qualified is in some cases, exactly the problem. in others, differently qualified. or, i was qualified 10 years ago but haven't done anything in that field since.

oh well. in the short term i'm going to try for some music students, it's the best hourly rate available in the absence of a real full time permanent job with benefits ... but not the best time of year to attract new customers. i've just decided to add singing to my repertoire of lessons making me a triple threat of sorts LOL hope that will help.

thanks again for the kind words all.

tried a couple more places today, no dice. and as it turns out i'm still short a few bucks on the rent :S grr
come on, last pay day.
and then, come on, first pay day for whatever i do next!

Well, I really hope you find something. Perhaps you ought to write a book on nutrition and supplementation? You helped a woman with her pregnancy, perhaps you could help many more in writing a book?

thanks L. maybe one day i will write a book.. can't get it done by next month's rent though. pretty much just need to find a joe job with a negligible commute, ASAP!

I know, completely useless for the sort term but do it, it will be great I'm sure! Very lucrative too!

think i might have something small sorted out... still going to be impossible to pay rent though ... ugh..

big freak out today. last straw. going to a free counsellor to vent on thursday. maybe they can help me see a way out

Poor you JL, I hope it works out, I really do.

thank you L i'm hangin in there and losing it at the same time :S
