Well my husband went to work today like normal and got sent home. They busted everybody down to 2 days a week.

I guess that's one way to eat less....

    I am sorry, it's almost to the point that I know more people laid off than working. I hope this turns around soon.

    Sorry to hear that BUT now you have a partner to do resistance training with and go on long walks with BONUS, share the HOUSEKEEPING with :bigsmile:
    Join the challenge to always see the good in every situation, perhaps he can do some gardening,DIY etc for an elderly person/neighbour (cash in hand?):tongue:

    Let me just say - I am so sorry, and I completely understand.

    My DH just got laid off because they found an 'intern' that will do his job for free. :mad: (I hate the movie business :explode: )

    I hope he finds supplemental work soon. :flowerforyou:

    I hate that for you hun! My mom worked her regular 3 days this week only to be told that they were laying her off permanently so now she doesn't have a job either. i think it will get way worse before it gets better. I hope things are ok with you!:flowerforyou: I will be thinking about you!!:happy:

    I work in furniture and we have been on slow time. But I can at least be grateful for having a job when so many other people don't right now.

    I'm sorry to hear that! I know the feeling. My company recently had a lay off and while I was fortunate to keep my job, everyone left was forced to take a 20% pay cut while working an extra 10 hours/week. That stings!

    I'm so sorry to hear that. I don't know what I would do if I lost my job. No hubby or boyfriend to help support me. It's just me. Scary! Good luck to both of you. :flowerforyou:
