    Default As of this Friday, I will no longer be employed

    Due to economic cutbacks, I will be losing my part-time job because they are doing away with my department. I am actually trying very hard to secure a position within the same company in a different department that would be more hours and better pay but I am not counting on anything. I went through our budget and based it only on my DH's net pay. We can make all the bills but we would have no "play" money at all. If I do get this job, I will be using my earnings strictly for paying down our debt. I am so frustrated with the job situation right now. If I don't get this job then I'm thinking about just being a SAHM. I am tired of the roller coaster ride of employment in todays economy. I should find out by Friday if I get the job. Wish me luck! It's not my dream job by anymeans but I'm in no position to be picky!!!!

    Saying a prayer that you will get the job if that's what God has planned for you.
