I used to live in Janesville Wisconsin...last year. We were transferred there from Georgia when the GM Doraville plant closed...really liked Wisconsin...great schools (Milton Schools). Sadly, we were transferred to Ohio this year when the Janesville GM plant closed...I’m not loving Ohio really. The schools are good, but my two older kids are not fitting in well...they did fine in Janesville. The plant is a really tough one and more than a few of the over 40 crowd have been targeted with bogus employee improvement programs which can lead to dismissal...funny all white 40+ males. Of course GM won’t survive a bankruptcy anyway in my opinion...if I’m wrong and hubby survives the age thing and GM survives, we are going to be down 9 weeks in July and August-no pay...not sure if vacation time can be used. I am really depressed which is unusual for me (nickname=pollyanna).
I’m sorry to hear that. I really hope you and your family can get through it all.
I decided to start my own business (Software quality and process consulting.)
I figure that if anybody is going to make stupid decisions that end up losing me my job, from now on that’s going to be me!
It’s a huge risk, but it’s worth it.
But don’t worry. Obama will provide!
Hath you not received your loaves and fishes yet?
Prayers to your family.
