Well this is shaping up to be the month for job changes. My wife was laid off last June after 5+ yrs at Fujitsu Labs. She found a new job in September at a much smaller custom manufacturing company about 3 miles from our home. Today they informed her that their orders are way down and her last day will be Friday. :timebomb:

Looks like it's back to bag lunches for awhile ...

Sorry for the news bro. Years ago that happened to us about a week before we were going to closing on our house. Yeah it sucks, but we'll send some prayers ya'lls way that something better will come along real soon.

Dang, that sticks! Well I'm sure something else good will come along; it always does. But it's unfortunate none the less.

Here's wishing her the best of luck!
