I returned from vacation and this past Monday and was laid off. 

My wife has been laid off for a long time as well which OK since she worked her whole life. 

Over the years we lived within our means and paid off the house ten years ago so we are in pretty good shape. 

My wife is really stressed out even though I can collect for a long time and then I can draw on any one of several pension plans. 

I like manufacturing engineering so it is tough to consider what to do. Successfully getting new technologies and new products through the prototype and production stages gives you a sense of accomplishment and helping our customers succeed is rewarding. 

  

To be positive I can get to all those home projects done. I'm sure everyone has those and never has the time to complete when your working.

Subject: [TN] NTC: I just joined the ranks of the unemployed... 

Well, the recession has finally hit home to me personally, I got a call today while I was home on vacation visiting my family in North Carolina that I've been laid-off. Was told that it was strictly an economic thing, there's just no work. Wasn't really expecting it, but not totally suprised by it. Was wondering when I was going to have to lose some skin in this game, now I know... 

I'm kind of numb now. But my mind is racing 100-mph trying to think of what I'm going to do. I've already been on the web for a couple of hours looking to see what's out there. Sure not much going on in Oklahoma. 

I'll still be on the TechNet, my web page is still available for posting pictures, so everybody can still continue to send me their photos. 

Now my job will be to find a job. Wish me luck.
