Nice to see you want to work. Sorry for the downsizing. Hope you find just the right position.

They should still have to offer benefits with Obama's new health care law. You would just have to pay for it. If you can't afford it, check with the state to see what benefits you will qualify for. I would also look into unemployment to see if they will suppliment your income.

That stinks mate!

What do you do for a living? What's the job market like?

We could use a pool boy. Get back to me when you look good in a pair of speedos. I'm sure it won't be long!

OMG, this thread is hilarious! Not about getting your hours cut of course, that is awful. Well, I could use a pond boy if you would like to come to my house and play ;) lol.

Seriously? I work for FedEx too (on the express side). If you're full time, they shouldn't be able to bump you down to part time. Plus our part timers still get full benefits.

My mom just lost her job with FedEx, too, and is now totally reliant on her partial disability payments (that were thankfully just approved a week ago). Sorry to hear you're experiencing this, too. I hope something turns up for you quickly.

Keep your eyes open and be flexible is all I can suggest.

Flexible in a speedo on the internet might make you some cash if you found the right audience. ;)

I work at FedEx office. They said this will be a trial. And If it works then they will bring it to the full company. Their changing everything.

There's unemployment benefits for your situation.

Maybe you can work as a personal chef for some wealthy folk! Canbage, with the right accent, can sound very expensive ;)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
