RIPWASH


Hi all,

I don't normally do this, but I figure what the heck. Just found out today that I'll be unemployed at the end of the month. If anyone knows of any job possibilities in OH or even in the southeasterly locations, let me know. Willing to relocate.

I'm employed through New Year's Eve. Then I've got a severance package that will keep us afloat for a bit. My main concern will be health insurance (finding affordable coverage - COBRA through work will be WAY too expensive). If anyone has any helpful tips in that area that, too, would be appreciated.

Well, what kinda skills do you have? If you apply for something in the vicinity of your field, then you'll probably get better insurance options.

I'm bumping this because necroposting has nudged this down, and this is important.

Endure and the deluge shall end.

In 2004 my husband was part of a mass firing during a convienent "restructuring" of our states unemployment system so they denied everyone's for two months and denied it again anyway after the two months... We hadn't been married too long and didn't have a safety net of any kind. Hate credit cards, but am so thankful I had good credit, the bad news?- we are still trying to pay it off five years later and I am still terrified of it happening again...Gee, just can't imagine why homeless shelters are packed!

Ripper, I haven't heard anything from you in a while, and I worry for you and your family.

You might consider a move to Texas. You'd fit right in down here, I'm sure. And we're less hard-hit than most areas of the country. That said, there aren't a ton of jobs around here, either.

I wish you the very best; you're a good egg.

Check this out..

http://www.alliedbarton.com/employment/index.aspx

I have been working for this security company for almost three years now. It might not pay a lot but it's stable job and it will provide you with benefits. I just checked the job openings for Ohio and they are hiring in a number of cities.
I'm not sure if you're interested in this kind of work. I just dont want to end up not doing anything about the unfortunate situation you're facing. Good luck and Happy new year.
