Well, at least you have a little bit of time while they wrap up projects in order to try and get another job. All is not lost yet.

P.S. - I do feel for you though - I lost my job last december (2007) and it took me over two months to find a new one, and it was one paying less than my previous job, at that. I'm just now getting back to to pay range I was at before...

Been there, done that. Pray for you and everyone being affected by this economy. It does seem something bigger/higher intervenes if you can relax and let it. I know from experience that is easier said than done or as they say " when the guy down the street losses his job it's a recession, when you lose your's it's a depression. Good luck.

That sucks man. I'm crossing my fingers that I can avoid one of those situations...so far so good but I'm not taking anything for granted.

I'm sorry, man. VERY sorry. You know you will come through this just fine. Luckily, it sounds like you have some time to think about all this...and what you are going to do.

You and your family will be okay, bro.

Sorry to hear that :(

I also lost my job, two of them actually, in the last 2 months :(

Everything happens for a reason though, so keep your head high and it will get better.
