So… updates… Andy got a call from his head hunter last Monday saying that the company was restructuring and going through the budget and has decided to close down a plant in one of the “I” states (Iowa or Idaho, can’t remember which 
) & they have to offer the 2 positions that are open to the 2 people working in the I state. Apparently they’re middle- aged & settled down so the head hunter thinks it’s unlikely they’ll want to move. I’m a little skeptical. I mean, jobs are hard to come by. Are there more power plants in whatever state these guys live in that they can get another job at?
As pour moi, I have been sending out loads of résumés online. I can’t find it now, but last Friday MSN had an article on how my generation (“Generation Y” which are those of us from roughly the late 1970s to late 1980s) is getting laid off the most and is having the hardest time finding a job. What a downer 
So, right now all we can do is wait it out (we should know by the end of January) and keep applying to jobs. Keep your fingers crossed for me that I can find something! Every day I’m supposed to go in, my boss tries to convince me not to. If I don’t though, I can’t pay my bills!
