Now here I am 13 years later and I have never been unemployed in all this time. Looking back I was far removed from that situation and I realized that company made the right decision hiring my co worker because that company's clients were mostly male. It was a receptionist position. Most men would rather be greeted by a female. Naturally though I wonder if she is still with that company, but that doesn't really matter. Like other Ledgies have stated, one door closes and another door opens. It is just a fact of life. Also, in today's job market, no ones job is secured.

Those temp agency places are a joke.I never had luck with them and they offer jobs that are an hour or two away from home with crap pay.Its not worth driving with todays gas prices to a low wage job .

Self employed is the best way to go.Your own boss .Take time off anytime for concert tours or whatever.

The last job I had was a joke because they were upset because I wanted to take a week off to go on vacation and see Stevie on tour.Which I earned two weeks off every year.They told me I only can take a couple days off since its start of the busy season At that moment I gave my two weeks and move on.Who needs that crap if you cant take vacation time when I want it.

Thats what happen with a place with poor management that cant place its employees if one goes on vacation.

Good luck Sadangel you have a skill.They said the market is doing alittle better.
