I feel blessed to have stumped upon this forum. This may sound really queer, but for the first time in my adult life I’m out of work, and this forum had given me something to look forward to every day. I have met some very nice people here and gotten some very good advice. The worst thing about being laid off is the boredom. I live in a very small town and know no one. My wife is a work all day and I just sit home. This forum has given me a life line to some very real people. I have been in the USA for 10 yrs, but the first 4 yrs I was “undocumented” so I kept a very low profile and kept to myself. Thus never really making any acquaintances. My life was my work and when that was gone, I plummeted. I just want to thank you all.
