I teach school and this is my fifth year and we had like 20 cuts and one was me!!!!!!! So, Im hunting! Education degree.. 5 years experience.. no job. Wife teaches as well and have new 5 month old baby girl... can you say,.. DAMN?!?!?!

Hey bro sorry to be nosey and ignore me if im asking too personal of a question but were you "tenure"? I thought they couldnt get rid of ya if you were tenure which is after like 3 years isnt it? I only ask cause my wife teaches as well she is going on her 8th year, she teaches highschool and im pretty sure her school cut teachers as well but not tenure teachers, anyways i hope things turnaround for you and ur family and enjoy the spare time with ur baby girl bro! Mine grew up so fast it wasnt funny, she is 12 now but still it went fast as hell!

Yes got a job! contracting sucks but damn i need the money,but for the record I HATE PLUMBING. btw dorian I saw your post do you do tear out work or are you an insurance adjuster?

neither I'm a lineman-my girlfriends dad has been doing it for 45 years and he said that he has NEVER seen it this bad...

the world needs electricity-but the power companies aren't going to spend the money unless they have to...let the wires hit the ground and kill a few people then we'll worry about it-that's their philosophy right now:thumbsup:

Problem with this war is all the other countries are doing the rebuilding. That and the money that usually goes back to re-invest into defect isnt there. -FUCKING BUSH!

hey dude don't get me wrong I'm not rep. or dem. and Bush did fuck a lot of shit up but what the hell is Obama doing?

he borrowed all that money from china to stimulate the economy and what did he do with it? Gave it to all his rich buddies, "the trickle down effect"-that trickle bullshit never worked in the past and now all of the sudden it's going to? yeah right

then he has the nerve to say that the reason the economy is going to shit is because the consumers aren't spending enough-HELLO-can't spend money if you don't have it...

Good posting there man, my dads an adjuster I do some work for him to make his claims easier and hes been saying the same thing for the past 2 years. They are really jacking up the whole deal want you to bend over backwards and play daddy to all those liars. There defense about it is well you will just have to take less claims. Screw that people have to make a living gdmit, and I agree with you post about obama ever since we became a consumer based economy we got screwed, as for how wars are supposed to stimulate the economys well they do ... when you MAKE things. Our economy is based on people blowing smoke up there own butts to make themselves feel better and going out to spend a bunch of money accumilating debt while they are at it. Now all those same pricks that looked downone guys like me are drownding in debt. Wake up america our economy cant be based on the housing market, especially if we dont make any products here at home to export out. Screw them all im not going to stand by and support "bailouts" for these idiots that cant manage their own money why should I they never did anything for me or my pay check. :moon::curse::curse::curse:

irish your right, that's what cracks me up-take the credit card companies for example they went through and jacked up everyone's APR...

because they gave out too many credit cards to people who have bad credit and those people filed section 8-then they jack up our CC and say, "well someone has to pay for it:dead:"

asshole you gave them the loan you pay for it

anyone who has been responsible and paid their bills on time is being penalized for it-section 8, section 8 the shit out everything

 

[irishhammer]

Yup, they tried jacking my intrest up on my card I told them go F themselves either change it or im not useing the damn thing... guess what they did dropped it back down you gotta stand up for yourself. They dont expect people to since we are TAUGHT not to all throught life.

 

[dorian123]

yeah i tried that too, they wouldn't budge so I just paid mine off and that dropped my credit score-so once again I got penalized for being responsible

ah fuck it, it's all a scam anywayleased:
