There's no way to sugar coat this- we found out Monday that Adrian lost his job.
Sigh.
Taking a deep breath.
It was somewhat unexpected and not the greatest experience, but we've decided to not let this ruin our lives. Ha! No, really, we won't. I won't deny it- it's been a tough last 48 hours, but we will get through this. Not sure when times will get easier- I'm sure there are others out there reading this who know exactly how we are feeling. We are optimistic though that things will turn around eventually. In the mean time, we're developing a plan based on several different scenarios. We're networking like crazy and are glued to the "Want" ads. We're looking for temporary positions to get us through until we find a more permanent position. It's crazy right now. We've all heard how bad the job market is, but I don't think you quite understand until you experience it. It's BAD.
So on that note, if anyone hears of any Mechanical Engineering opportunities, let us know! Wait, if anyone hears of ANY opportunities, let us know!
And in the mean time, we certainly appreciate all thoughts, prayers and words of wisdom. We'll keep you posted on any developments!
Thoughts and prayers-- you bet!! Wish we could do more... You guys are awesome!
ReplyDeleteHey - we wish you all the best. Up here in Idaho we heard that Micron is moving to Utah. They layed off a bunch of people up here and they are moving down to Utah so if you want to look into employment with them. They hire tons of engineers. We'll keep you in our prayers.
ReplyDeleteoh man, so sorry to hear. You guys will be in our thoughts and prayers for sure. We'll keep you posted if we hear of anything!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear about Adrian. I don't know of any jobs out in UT, but I just started doing an on-line gig to earn some extra money. You just answer people's questions. Maybe something you can do to fill in your free time? Anyway, here's the link and you can use my e-mail as a reference.
