    I'm just really venting here!! Some of you know work has been a bit slow! I work for a company that makes parts for 3M. They laid off 50 people, and it finally trickled down. 13 of us got laid of today! Two weeks ago, 10 people got laid off. There are jobs around, BUT, my car, that I just got, needs a couple things on it before I can tag it. SO, once again, I'm in that damned cycle, "can't do this with doing that"!!

    Just when things were starting to look better!! Now this, right at the holidays!! This is my first christmas with my granddaughter!! And with my sisters!!

    I'm not looking for "boo-hoo's", just venting!!!!!!!

    Of course, my jw mom says it's because I left Jehobar!!!!! AArrgh!!

    And when you get a better job, what will that be? A reward from Satan?

    I feel for you, I have lost jobs before. Its not pleasant. As far as your mother saying it was because you left Jehovah. Lots of witnesses in good standing loose their jobs and what about all the people that loose their jobs that arent witlesses. Your mother is trying to make you superstitious. I thought witlesses didnt believe in superstition.

    superstition a belief or notion, not based on reason or knowledge, in or of the ominous significance of a particular thing, circumstance, occurrence, proceeding, or the like

    Yes, that's true, because we all know that no Witness has ever lost their job. Did you at least get a severance package? If so, that would certainly help out alot if you can get another job right away.

    Chin up girl!

    Go ask at FedEx. They always hire temporary extra help at the holiday time.

    Oh, and your mom doesn't know what she's talking about- NO ONE loses more jobs than witnesses.

    Sheesh.
