Re: Budget cuts...lost my job...again... [FisH2O]
Losing your job is a very unfortunate situation for anyone. I know all too well and decided to turn my situation into a positive, influential one. While I’m able to get unemployment and supplemental income from my employer, I’m taking this time to not only be on the manhunt and find the right job with a stable future, but also do be creative with my time. I was working long hours and getting no credit for the time I was putting in, so although the situation isn’t ideal I’m making the most of my time at home – scrapbooking, catching up with friends, finding free stuff to do around the city, and even doing some creative writing to stay sane in these uncertain times. I’ve learned that saving money is essential because most of us are a paycheck or two away from losing everything. I had to revamp my budget and it was a reality check as to what I could realistically live off of (wants vs needs).

There are a lot of helpful resources out there, you just have to tap into them and plead your case. People can be very understanding because there are so many of us that are unemployed these days. Many agencies are getting stimulus money, so google them and see if there is assistance available that you could use. Until then, keep pressing and pushing and with time something will come along.
