WSAENOTSOCK Posted January 29, 2004 Share Posted January 29, 2004 With no real job I can pull in a maximum $50 a month but I'm still good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macgyver Posted January 29, 2004 Author Share Posted January 29, 2004 Sorry to hear the many woes.I am lucky to be working albeit too much.It is either feast or famen with my company.Unfortunatley we were Feasting 6 to 7 days a week till 9/11. Then the bottom dropped out.Over 600 hourly and 200 saleried were layed off permanently. They cut more saleried as time went on too.We are still a strong company. We just have less people.It is do more with less or LEAN as they are putting the new programs to work to get us to make more with less people.At least I have a job.Now only if I can get 10 more years. That will be 30 years at age 49. I can retire, collect pension and medical and move to Vermont where I have 2 acres put aside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSAENOTSOCK Posted January 29, 2004 Share Posted January 29, 2004 Retire at 49? Seems a little young to retire, but hey, I'm Canadian, things are different up here . Mac, you should open a small computer buisness, nothing big, but offer people cheaper prices than the big name companies, it would be perfect for you. You're real smart with computers, and you would make a great buisnessman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macgyver Posted January 29, 2004 Author Share Posted January 29, 2004 I would loose money b/c the prices reflect how much you buy versus how much it cost your business.Sure I could build machines inexpensively but to live off of the business/retire on it would be hard. Especially up in Vermont.Thanks for the support though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
