Another one bites the dust.

I'm so sorry, Nomad. My son lost his too. Among so many others. Tough times. I hope you find another job soon.

Sorry to hear that, Nomad. This is a situation we all fear.

You have my sympathy. being unemployed is no fun at all. Got my own business but turnover is down by a third

What also says a lot to me is a recent turn of a situation. Mr O due to his placid nature once a week visits the people who have bounced a Cheque on his friend's business. The nature of our friends business is a small chain of take-aways of fast food who deliver as well. With the current crisis, we did expect to see a down turn in business, after all, in a credit crunch, the first thing folk would sacrifice, is the take-aways? NO. Business is no different to last year. The difference is the increase in the amount of rubber cheques Mr O has to visit.











Nomad...... so sorry to hear of your news....... come over here..... my bro will hire you to fighten the horses before the 'Under orders'

Yup you have my sympathy also Nomad, pretty grim for hubs business too..

Sorry Mate:-4

So your husband is a thug or a hitman or a vacuum collector or what ?

I do love frightening farm animals. I tried getting tough with a herd of cows once. In retrospect I wouldnt do it again.

I had a fight with a herd of coes once and in retrospect, i wouldn't do it again either even if it was their field

Seriously Nomie..... have you thought of re-locating to Britain? We got loads of jobs you could do. The Queen is looking for security for Ted Kennedy right now?

You have my sympathies, Nomad. I'll be looking for a new contract myself next week.

Ive always wanted to be an astronaut.


Dear Nomad, don't worry, you already are.

And we loves ya for it.

Best of luck, mate.

I am sorry to hear this, I am sending good thoughts your way as you find another job. :-4

I am so sorry to hear your news Nomie. I hope you find a new job soon. I think a lot of us are wondering if we'll be next in line for this news. I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

I don't know if this will help but when my dad was unemployed he took a ladder and bucket and knocked on people's doors asking if they wanted their windows washed. I wish someone would do that today. I'd pay for a regular window cleaner. Good luck.

I`m so sorry, that really sucks!

We have had some-one setting up a wheelie bin cleaning service. £4 a time. I'm going to use it.

So, you tried being a cowpuncher huh ?? :yh_rotfl:yh_rotfl

Hey, I have a friend that has slightly dented homemade moon rocket his wife would probably let it go for pretty cheap..

I couldn't resist..

Sorry about your job .

:yh_rotfl :yh_rotfl I'm glad to see you haven't lost your sense of humor!

Good luck to you. I hope you find another job soon. :-4

Sorry to hear that Nomes, hope something turns up soon :-6:-4

Nomad just lost his job.That really surprises me, I was thinking only last week that you were in the one job which was going to get a lot of trade over the next couple of years.

Lots of applications and lots of interviews, that's the fix.

Do you remember the ice cream wars of the last recession? Try setting up as a window cleaner and see what happens.

Keep yer ****** up Nomie - you've had a lean patch before and come through it and you can do so again.

Best of luck mate, you're too good to be down for long :-6



ETA What the hell's wrong with peckker?

Losing my job was the best thing that happened to me. Changed my life. Don't coop yourself up. Get out and do stuff. Volunteer. Find a yard in need and mow it. Whatever



You'll feel like a million. :-6

Nomie :-1 bummer I'm stunned and sad for you. My son-in-law lost his job as well an electrician and can only find part time work. I know you will find something. Can you go back to your old employer?? are they hiring??:yh_hugs I will keep good thoughts and know you will be back in the work force soon.

ACC has a point Volunteer work is how I got my present job.

Forced vacation sweetie... time to get to all those little projects around the house you couldn't find the time for...:yh_whistl:yh_bigsmi



You could actually hit me up for a fiver or so babe..let me know if I can do anything.. you little creep...:-4

Im thinking of going into business for myself. Its a thought. I have no idea where to start or how to get it going but if we can split atoms Nomad should be able to figure something out.

Thanks for the pity. I know people always say I dont want your pity but I think its way under rated.

Sorry to hear about your job.

26 people lost theirs jobs from the company my husband & son work with.

They are still hanging in there atm.

There are more jobs to go at the end of the month the mines here are starting to feel the pinch.

I hope things work out for you.

Optimistry must be in high demand at the moment. You could make a killing.:-6

What the hell happened ???

my brother I will always call him "Little Ken " since my Dad was also a Ken...

Lil Ken wants to get a Hot Dog Cart & Grill etc.- He's looking for a name..?

I said Lil Ken's Big Dog's ...:yh_rotfl he's a great cook - personality, does radio & drives truck long haul..

Bri - are really really set living in MN.? it's so limited, meaning with all the winter -

GEEEz - my Brother, now you...

this economy sucks - and the added stress is starting to alter people

it's starting to stimulate changes within people like I've never seen before..

My Brother has Diamond rings for yrs served with this CO......?

what are your options..? ever thought about State Change? I mean if you want to change - let's dot it head to toe..

Oh, Sh$$ - my husband just pulled a loose tooth.. see what I mean, economy

Sorry Nomad... The lawn mower isnt a bad idea..................Times just right.

Sorry to hear your news ....... something will turn up I'm sure :-4

sorry to hear about your job Nomad. Yeah, business is slow but at times busy. He has yet to do my mum's kitchen! Why don't you come over and fix it.

best wishes! :yh_hugs

and in the meantime you'll have more fg time! :-4

The toilet overflowed.

Tomorrow's going to have to be the 1st day of the rest of my life.

I cant start my life out like that.

All over the floor? Yuk! It usually doesn't do that, just goes up to the rim and sits there. Believe me I've seen it numerous times. Children and toilet paper don't mix:rolleyes:

Id like to keep doing what I was doing. The investigation aspect isnt feasible at this time but process serving is extremely lucrative.

I want to do it for myself. I dont know where to start so clearly I need to educate myself, attend seminars, find out about loans and grants, get business, saturate the area by advertising, making personal calls etc etc.

There are hundreds of law firms downtown. One may not be happy with their current service. I need to find that one then build.

I already know the pricing aspects. I know the laws and statutes.

I need to do some research.
