Oh yeah! Been unemployed since Dec of '08. Yep, you read that right. I had 7 employees and myself who's positions were terminated. Two of us lost our retirements and our helath care, one was transferred to the sheriffs dept., another found work doing a totally different position, and the rest remain unemployed. I went back to school where I have been for four semesters. Because I had two open Workmen Comp cases from injuries I sustained, I was not able to and still can't collect unemployment so no income at all coming in for me. My DH is retired and we barely can make ends meet and live pretty meagerly. Enjoy your vacation. You can take care of things when you get back.
