    Is your company laying off people? There is a major corporation in my city and they are laying off 3500 people here. We are going through some bad times right now in this country and world wide. God bless you, I wish you and your family well.

    My company is not laying me off. I made a mistake and now they have a decision to make on weither or not to keep me.

    Thanks for the prayers.

    Whether you get the can or not, start looking around for another j.o.b. I don't know your situation, or the employment prospects of your area, but you could lose you job today and get another tomorrow. Either way keep your chin up. If your honest with your family and they know how important your competition is to you, they will support you. If the worst happens don't let it ***ress you. The worst thing you can do is sit around and analyze a f**k up to death. If you made a mistake, chalk it up to a learning experience and march forward. Trust me a couple of months from now you will look back and wonder why you were so freaked out. We're with you man. Hang in there like a junk yard dawg!

    Thanks for the support. It's just hard becuase I'm clearing round 800 per week. Most other jobs around here I'd only be clearing 400 and thats with a college degree. The job market sucks here!!! I know 3 months I'll be lau***ng but now it's really hard. Should find out today or tommorrow if they are going to spare me.

    Oh Jeez, that's tough, we'll keep the prayers going through the weekend. One thing, if they didn't come right and give you the axe that might be a good sign, maybe they're just formulating a probationary process.

    Stay strong!

    Here is a pic taken last friday then I was 14 weeks out. Now I'm 13 weeks out today but lost 5 pounds due to the job situation.

    I was planning on kicking some ass in the Welter weight division.

    keep your fingers crossed.
