Sorry to hear that. They say we aren't in a recession but people are sure hurting like there is one. At least you don't live in a state run by Benedict Arnold.

He is an excellent web designer. Just look at his profile page here at JSR. I even stole his background because he made it so uber.

I might have some freelance work for you, but I'm betting you are over my price range

Re: Laid off. Again. Boo.

It should be temp hopefully...until August or so. One of our investors pulled out a couple months ago. We found a new one, but the land he just sold wont get him money until they start drilling for oil on it. =/

I should be ok **IF** the bank manages to stop the check I wrote monday for $1700 towards our furniture debt. (that was from economic stimulus money and fed tax return). If I get that back, we'll be in ok shape for a few months. Everyone cross your fingers.

Re: Laid off. Again. Boo.

If it hasn't cashed, and you put a stop payment, then you should be good. *crosses fingers just in case.*

Bummer man, hope everything works out for the best. Every now and then, something that seems bad at the time turns out to be the best thing for you. Let's hope it's one of those times.

Sorry to hear about that Hornet. Like Grim said, I hope this turns out to be a good thing in the long run.
