I've LOST my Job Thank the Lord

[Gerald Creasy]

This happens to me everytime a Democrat is in office.

At the end of May I lost my Job of 12 years due to cutbacks and the poor economy.

This was called a permanent layoff.


I am thanking the lord for various reasons because the following has been eliminated:

- The night schedule that was killing me.

- The blistering hot in the summer and cold in the winter work envioment.

-The severe dermititus the inks caused which made my hands crack, bleed and swell.

- The Management that was not treating employees well.

- A certain "jezebel" after I had assisted her to get a higher paying job had decided entirely upon her own to make my life a living hell.

The absolute good :

-The Severance package enabled me to eliminate 50% of my debt and maybe more and allowed me to take a few weeks budget vacation to Florida to see family.

If they had come to me and offered without forcing me out I would have jumped at it.


But now I am facing the depression and fear of NOT KNOWING where I'll end up or what I'll be doing....my skills are rather specific, the market for them limited and an Associates Degree in Biblical Studies can't put food on the table and I am a whole lot older than the last time I looked for a job.

Keep me in your prayers.

prayer continues my friend!

[one love]

Gerald I am praying for ya.

What kind of work did you do?

[beckrl]

Praying, and I know were you are coming from.

[Susie Hamilton]

Praying for something to happen.

[Tracy]

I will pray.

[Pastor Bill]

praying here brother, and if you want me to keep an eye out for things in this area let me know what to be looking for. I get job lists from Monster & Career builders on a daily basis for this are, not too much as far away as you are, but some not too far either.

[PastorDaniel]

Praying Gerald...also...just a resume tip....

I would list that I had an Associates Degree either of Science or of Arts from the specific College and would leave out the major....

Make them ask...a lot of them won't ask...for example they'll just see that you have an:

"Associate of Science, John Doe College, 19XX"

Not that your ashamed of a Biblical studes degree...just that the focus should be on the fact that you do have A degree...and that counts for something!

Gerald,
Sorry to hear about joining the ranks Ive been on for about eight months. I do understand the Degree and age issue. Its my prayer your experiance is differant than mine.

Yes, this is the obama recession.

Something tells me this was much needed and that your circumstances are going to change for the better when you can soon look back instead of ahead.

Keep an open mind and don't rule out any opportunities that become available.

[Jennifer Smith]

Praying for you and your family, continued blessing and favor. I know it probably doesn't feel like a blessing, but perhaps it is a release and an opportunity for greater things. God is good. Bless you brother.
