Been out of work since March 09, start a new job next Monday. 30 hours per week, but will get health insurance I think.
DH was in manufacturing almost 30 years, been out of work good part of 3 years, except for temporary work for 60 days, 2 or 3 times.
We are both in late 50's.
I thank our blessings, we are healthy, God willing, keep my kids safe. Oldest joined Army at 33, after being out of work for a year, yongest moved back home 27 yrs old. Can get part time hours.
Could be worse, my heart goes out to all that are worse off.
