This unemployed thing is the best job I ever had. Just wish I didn't have to wait to become a geezer to get it. I've been retired three and a half years and I'm loving it. I stay just as busy as I want. Like, just today, I got to clean out the garage since my water softener decided to take a crap this morning at 2:30. I couldn't have had that much fun, if I'd been employed. And and and, The Big O is gonna make life SO much better for us unemployed folks as soon as the "change" kicks in. Yessireebob!

Mikie, I am so sorry to hear that. I have an extra bed at the Riverside that Ginny is welcome to have. Oh, and you too. Lets get the Hedge Hog sold!
Mike, don't wait a minute. Get your resume updated and start detailing yourself. You're a great guy and have been a loyal, hard working, knowledable employee. You should be in demand.

Mike,
Good luck to you. I'm kinda glad to hear it is this instead of what it could have been.

Naps are important part of retirement, when everything is done , its nap time.

Mike I am deeply sorry to hear that you are now unemployed, I know the feeling well, I got dumped after twenty years working for a large multi-national company in Asia. I had just purchased a home in Scottsdale and had a mortgage that would choke a horse, lost the house eventually and all that I owned. I was broke, But I began again, doing what you are doing, updating the resume and after a while landed some very interesting factory projects, back in Asia. Since then I clawed my way back. I feel for you Mike, I really do, so if I can do anything for you please send me a PM. Thanks, John,

Mike,

Plan on going to Laughlin. It's a cheap trip and you need to blow off some stress. Anyway, I'll miss you if you don't go.

When your resume' has been updated, send it to me. I will get it to the right people at Banner and Sonora Quest.

Lyle

Mikie,

I'd offer you a job doing box deliveries, but I am doing that job now. Besides the pay sucks. Free delivery is a complete service, I do it for free.

Hope Banner etal has something for you.

Hey Mikie, really sorry to hear what happened. You know I was in the same boat a couple years ago....I think the next best thing to being retired is being a realtor.....just as long as you get the clients. It was scary slow for the last 2 months but it is starting to pick up now....THANK GOODNESS. Good luck my friend.....Posi
