I'll be joining the unemployed ranks next week :| Boss just asked me to take a $10/hr pay cut, 20 hour/week cut, and full time benefits.... No way I can afford my house/car on that.

I'm sorry. :( Just a thought, though: Shouldn't you keep this job until you find a new one? Especially given how difficult finding a new one may be these days...

Ow....hmm, perhaps you can work full time on your other job?

So did you quit or did your employer lay you off...letting you able to get some unemployment benifits?

I'll be switching to an on call status. They'll call me and pay me when they need me.

They're going to lay me off, but I have another job, so I won't be getting unemployment benifits.

One of those Emergency Preparedness places and a police equipment supplier. They've been dying for a long time, so I guess it was only a matter of time. I am/was the MIS Admin, webdesigner/programmer, and graphic artist for them. I'll still do it for them, just under contract.

Day job. My chef job is still there, but I had that so i could pay off my debt, not live off of it.

Why the supercharger then?

Can you cancel that order?

Gonna have to now. I got the super charger as a reward to myself for paying all of my debt off. I paid cash for it.

Maybe we could start a few rumors about apocolyptic catastrophes that could soon hit Wasatch county, and generate some new business for your company...

That makes all the difference in the world, you weren't going into debt for it.

At least you're going into this with little to no debt (I'm assuming you still owe on the truck itself?).

Wouldn't work in Utah. Mormons would just run to their bishop and the local wards would have a preparedness powwow. Utah is our worst profitting state. In order for that to work, we'd have to do it somewhere like Georgia or Alabama.

yeah, I still owe on the truck, and I just bought a house like a month ago. But the house I guess is considered an asset, not a debt. And I *could* sell my truck if I had to. :(
