Day
Ten
Last
night definately was not the right time to talk to Scott. Someone in payroll
at his work let it slip that people will be getting their pink slips in
a couple of days. Scott has been there for eight years, but in this day
and age where only the bottom line counts, employee loyalty means squat.
He is worried that he will be one of the ones to get a pink slip. So I
have spent all my free time writing his resume, "just in case".
If he is one of the unlucky ones, he wants to be among the first to hit
the streets, figuring it would take everyone else a couple of days to
get their acts and resumes together. If he can't find another job right
away, I will have to go back to work until he finds one - something I
do not want to do. I haven't had a full-time job outside of the home since
Lissy was born, and I really hoped I wouldn't have to until she was in
school. And if I go back to work, I wouldn't be able to homeschool Trey
when he is old enough. Plus, Scott and my MIL will have to watch the kids
during the day while I worked. So starting a business for me is out of
the question right now, because I don't think I'd be good enough at first
to make enough to meet the bills. And the $249 is definately out of the
question until we know about Scott's job. I am so worried he will lose
it. Meredith's husband lost his job last year, and he still hasn't found
another one, and they are considering moving south to try and find one
where the job prospects are a little better. I am so stressed out, and
even the kids know something is up, but thankfully they are both too young
to understand. I can't wait for the next two days to be over with. The
not knowing is the worst. I just want to know!!
