Some of you guys know that Im scheduled to be laid off on August 31st. I have a 14 week severance waiting if that happens. There is still work, and I would expect them to ask me to stay, but after 8 years and knowing even another extension would be short lived, Ive been thinking about taking the money and running. It would mean a huge change and some struggle for my family but at least I could turn the page and start to rebuild.

Well in order to be able to run, I need a new job, so I decided two weeks ago that I would start getting resumes out. I sent 4 out Monday, and  already had an interview that lead to a new job offer today. I also have a second company that has been calling me all week but we cant connect for an interview, this is the one I really want, back home with my family. Seems like jobs are coming out the wood work. All the offers are far less, but I expected that hit, and making less is better than not doing anything. Just knowing that  I now have a place to go lifted a lot of weight of my shoulders.

I know what your going through.  Been there and done that.  I had a great job and it went to Mexico.  Now I got one that probably is even better overall with better benefits and more money down the road.  You'll be ok.

I hope it works out like you want it to. I know how it weighs on a man with a family to support when his job security is in the balance. I'm glad you already have an offer.

Good luck to you with your decisions. It looks like your prayers may have been answered already. The cream always comes to the top. It all happens for a reason, and this can, indeed, work out for the best. I wish you nothing less..Go get 'em..Mike
