    The current job market is garbage. Its getting back to the days of you have to know someone on the inside to get hired.

    I'm waiting on a phone call to see if I have a new job. My current employer is playing the layoff game every quarter, and I'm not going to stay around long enough to be a winner in their little game.


    Think B.A. Where did you hide the Megos?

      I'm working plenty of overtime but I don't lose sight of the fact I am grateful to remain with the same company and industry for the past 22 years. Hope it lasts.

          Hey,
          Always have worked relief at one of the local Emergency clinics, but for the last 9 months have worked almost every Saturday and Sunday relief as well as the normal 5 days at my day practice. Looks like that pattern will continue for the next two years heavy.
          Trying to get all debts paid off by the end of 2010 except the house. Since I still have a boatload of Student loans left, it will be hard but not impossible. The biggest trick will be not to burn myself out before I reach the goal - or have a heart attack.

            two jobs: as performer musician and as bass teacher and jazz combo teacher in a private school...meantime i've comed back to conservatory as pupil to take a graduation in jazz music...that could allowe me to try to enter the mkt of the public schools and university...but the Italian governement in charge decided to cut the financiaments to public instruction of over six bilions of Euros and an huge cut to culture and theatres for the years to come....i think i'll to face very hard times... consider that the part time job mkt in Italy is very little compared with yours..
            well, we will see , crisis had been already comed and passed in recent history...

                  Been working 5-10 hours of OT per week since I started this new job a little over a year ago. Not much but every little bit helps.
