[QUOTE="Desert Skies, post: 1026437, member: 43443"] Thank you for your kind words and good advice,I will remeber them while we work thru this. My thinking has always been that you have to have some bad to get some good and whats going to happen has pretty much been all laid out anyway. When I look back there have been only a few bad things to deal with in my life and experiences helped open doors that lead to better things,if I had made other choices things might not have worked out so well. At this point its pretty hard to find any positives that might come from this and I have searched for them. I know it will get better and it might even be much better but,tick tock. Twenty years ago I laid out a plan and began my climb to the very top of the driving industry,actually I have hit the top twice with different companies. During that time I took all the abuse and put up with all the garbage because I knew that it was part of the game. Having to do it all again is not something I look forward to but I am willing to do it because I have others depending on me. Plus I really love a good challenge,kicking butt and taking names is something I am really good at and its what helped me to be successful for most of my life. When I left my teamster job for my "dream job" my income dropped just a bit but quickly recovered and then increased. With this job loss my income has gone from 100k+ to maybe 55k is not only hurting me but also having negative effects on my family. For twenty years they have never had to worry about things like food and shelter because I have always been a very good provider. Now all that security has been ripped away and I know they worry about what might happen. Do I see us homeless or hungry,no not even close but they see things different. They worry about money for thier sports or that mom might have to work,these are the things that are important to them. [/QUOTE]
