Loosing my job...

[fyre_storm 1,412]

Their cutting my hours from 40 a week with full benefits to 15 hrs a week and no benefits. Does anyone need a pool boy?! Willing to work!!!

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.

I'm so sorry to hear that. That is a drastic cut!

[fyre_storm 1,412]

Thank god for the health reform. I don't want not to have any health insurance especially the first year of this surgery!! Man this has been one crappy moment after another this month.

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!

Won't work dean, I've been tying to get him Into speedos for months. He refuses.

The closes thing I can get him to do is put on a giant hamburger suit 0_o

[fyre_storm 1,412]

I know! I work at FedEx office! Ill wear a speedo but make it a large one so I don't pop out

[No game 14,437]

Your going to get a lot of offers now Martin!

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
