Hey akazia21....thanks for posting here. I have read your posts with interest. You and i are in similar situations career wise as I am unemployed as well. I did start with a new company yesterday (plumbing), but they let me go as I did not get as much completed as they had hoped....it was a bit of a blow to my confidence, but i did not and will not drink over it. To do so would only make me more unemployable, and I nor my wife needs that.....I hope you stay strong for you and your daughters sake....take care and hope to see more of you here on SR...
