After 2.5 years....sending in several thousand job applications....getting maybe 15 hits at best...and only a half dozen actual face to face interviews...Paul FINALLY got a job. Sure, it's less than 1/3 of what he was making...but because live quite frugally, it is enough to cover the bills....which is all we really need. Forget about getting ahead...all we are worried about at this point is staying afloat!
It's so hard to find a job these days...especially here in Vegas, where we have the highest unemployment in the nation... AND the fact he is 58 years old...I can't believe he FINALLY got a company to take a chance on him.
We still won't be going to FP any time soon as he will not have any vacation time for a while...but hey, at least he has a job! Woo Hoo!

I'm going to bump this back up because we don't want spam jam at the top of the page!!! :-)
And thanks for all the well wishes....we are so relieved, that even though it's by no means a great job, at least he finally found something.

Sometimes it's just having a job that opens the door for other better opportunities.
