[no subject]

I got dumped a month ago with *NO* sverance, and had to run out and take
one-day contracts, wal-mart work, and other things just to keep my
handicapped wife and my young boys fed .  Hell, we didn't even have a
Christmas this year.  Read that again, I gave my kids no Christmas presents.
The in-laws stepped up to the plate and took care of my boys this year.

I don't get my first paycheck until 1/7, and I'm two car payments behind and
a mortgage payment due.  

I'll bet you didn't miss a single bill.

&gt; You get nearly 4 months pay and over 3 months unemployment while being 
&gt; out of work for 14 weeks and then found a comparable job without 
&gt; moving....deep breath...AND YOU'RE STILL PISSING AND MOANING ABOUT ALL 
&gt; THIS?!!!

Correction...NEARLY A YEAR'S PAY!!! 

Guess I was doing some of my own frothing at the mouth when I typed that
out...
