Mabelen Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 My dh just called me to say he's been laid off with a few others. We are devastated. He's been in that job nine months for which we moved across country. Please pray for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pam L in Mid Tenn Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Oh I do understand. That has happened to us several times! It is devastating. Use the weekend to relax as much as possible. Maybe even the whole next week... just relax as much as possible. Hugs and Prayers, Pam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tess in the Burbs Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 ((HUGS)) Happened to us in 2003. moved cross country, had a baby, bought a house, got laid off. Will let you know it was super stressful but life turned out good less than a year later. Pray you are able to recover quickly :grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Rat Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 :grouphug: We're in your boat and paddling hard. The best thing that has helped us right now is laughter. Keep laughing even when all you want to do is cry. It helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BridgeTea Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Praying for you and yours, Mabelen. We used to take a steady job for granted here at our house. All these layoffs remind us of how fortunate we are, because it really can happen to anyone at any time. I'm so sorry this happened to your family now.

JoyfulMama Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 :grouphug: We were in your boat last year - we had moved half-way across the country for dh's new job, bought a new house, and 9 mo later he was jobless. We've since moved again (and unpacked the boxes that never got unpacked at the last house). Laughter, a positive attitude, and the love and support of friends and family will get you anywhere! There is a light somewhere at the end of that dark, long-looking tunnel! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liz CA Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 You and your dh must be feeling let down! But perhaps the job situation for new jobs is better where you are now than where you moved from - trying to be positive even though it must feel bleak right now. I read the following on a wall plaque at our bookstore and loved it: Dear....(insert your name here) Don't worry! I have everything under control. I won't be needing your help today. Love, GOD Hope this helps a bit in these stressful times! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mabelen Posted November 14, 2009 Author Share Posted November 14, 2009 I know we will come out of this crisis. Losing a job is always traumatic; we have been through that before. I think it's the fact that we are still adjusting to the new environment that is making all of us feel so fragile, it's like not enought time has passed by to have recovered before we have to start over again. Thank you all so much for your thhoughts and prayers. Knowing you are there makes me feel supported. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
