    Default WTF is Going On .. I need to Rant!

    Forgive me ladies and gent I have to get this off my chest!!

    Ok so my wife was working for an accountant, who is very slow right now so he started to cut her hours. No big deal, I work 2 jobs, and just took on more hours to cover the loss of money. Then my wife’s second job which is in the mortgage industry took a shitter, so we lost a ton of income there, almost 3k a month. The bills are starting to pile up, and the accountant decides to lay her off after 12 years!

    I’m doing what I can and scraping up all the extra money I can, selling off all no essential items that I no longer use or need. In addition I am juggling her fragile mental state, because she feels like it is all her fault. She is cranky and irritable ( rightfully so) and I can only hug her and kiss her and tell he it will be ok so much before it sounds like I am just saying it to say it.

    To top it all off last night my wife went to a benefit for a little girl who lost her father in a car accident. While at the benefit some one backed into her car causing about $1000 worth of damage. The woman had phony Insurance card, and ID so we get stuck on this too.

    I’m getting fed the fuck up! GGGGGGGGGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRRAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH WHAT THE FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!

    Ok I feel a little better now

    I'm really sorry to hear that, what are your option right now with work? I know you work 2 jobs, and that's a lot, but she has 12 years experience, could she be really good at fighting for another job quickly at any other related work?
    Things will work out, I'm glad you were able to vent, and I hope she is able to find a job within this week or next, sometimes, it happens that fast, especially with Christmas coming up, people need extra employees.

    She has put out about 30 resumes, so I am hoping that something good turns up. She is not one to sit on her ass for any length of time, So I hope this will be a short term thing.

    I guess my biggest thing is finding ways to keep her spirits up, with out sounding like a cheerleader.

    Also, I think you should know that posting resumes on the internet is almost always futile. You should get her to ask her old boss for some referrals. Networking is key to finding a new job.

    Can your wife collect unemployment in the interim? It won't be as much as her salary, but it will help!!

    Francesca has a great point!! It may sound cheesy, and it's hard to believe when you're in that position, but once you hit the bottom, the only way is up!!

    My household is struggling right now, too, so I really felt connected to you and your wife and the stress issues you guys are dealing with right now. Parts of your post sound like Boyfriend could have written them!! It really helped me to see that he means all of the reassuring things he says, when he tells me it will all be okay. I hope things work themselves out sooner than later!! We're all here for you!! Keep us updated.

    Go to Barnes and Nobles and buy her the two following books:

    1. Bitter is the New Black

    2. Bright Lights Big Ass

    Both by Jen Lancaster. They totally make the loss of any job into something to laugh and commiserate wit h.

    You're welcome. They aren't expensive, and if you only can get one then do the Bitter is the New Black one. It should be required reading for any ambitious woman who finds herself unemployed. I promise it will get her to smile, at least a little bit.

    Keeping good thoughts for ya'll. Dont' you hate how when it rains, it pours.

    Dont worry...things like this ALWAYS get better...usually amazingly better. Everything happens for a reason...I truly believe that. Instead of being stuck at the same job forever...she will now find the job of her dreams...which would never have presented itself to her had this not happened.

    I'm having financial issues now too, which i'm trying not to stress over. I keep remembering that EVERY time things get bad and i am broke as fuck..all of a sudden I get a ton of amazingly fun high paying shoots all at once, or some random custie decides to hand me a grand because I'm pretty.
    If stuff like that happened all the time....we wouldnt appreciate it as much.

    So rub her shoulders, have her rub yours..have a glass of wine together and enjoy little pleasures like your fav tv shows, a movie night in bed, or great sex! And know that karma may be a bitch when it's deserved...but she gives back in spades when you need it!!!

    Well I figured I would update you guys:

    An accounting firm called my wife from an add she placed on Monster.com, they LOVED her. So on monday she starts a job that pays $2.00 an hour more than she was making. So hopefully we can start to catch up on these bills!

    Thanks again for all the words, and support!

    Awww, I am sorry to hear of your situation. I know how it is when the shit hits the fan. I know it's hard but I always try to remember there are people out there that have it far worse than I do.
