Yep, things are movin' right along. I've been out of work since Jan. when I
lost my decent paying, full time job of over 10 years. Day after tomorrow I
start part time at The Home Depot for 8 bucks an hour. Whoo hoo! Am I supposed
to kiss Barry's ass now? Will this be attributed to the stimulus?

Glad to hear you're findin at least some work buddy. The pickins here are
pretty much slim to none and the equipment business has dragged to a standstill
as almost no one in my industry is buyin machinery. Barely hangin on is what
most of 'em will tell ya they're doin these days which means there's damned sure
nothin in the kitty for new equipment aquisitions.
If there's anyway your re-employment can be tied to the "recovery" you
can bet your stat will be added to the list. Big O's crap is hittin the fan in
a big way these days and he is clutchin at every piece of anything he can even
construe his changes have had an impact on.
While you and I, and likely anyone with good sense, wouldn't really call part
time work a replacement for good full time re-employment I'd bet that still
qualifies statistically as such under the current state of affairs

So what have you been doing the last 11 months? Enjoying the benefits of
unemployment insurance? Now say "Thank you" to the Democrats who
pushed those benefits through.

No unemployment benefits but my home and 2 cars are paid for because I had
sense enough to not buy more than I could afford years ago and don't believe in
spending my money on toys.

My son-in-law is going to go to work next week after a year of no job but he is
only able to do it because the person he is replacing is going to prison for 40
years for selling crystal meth. I thank law enforcement for this not Odamna.
