Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
My husband 's boss came to the office last Thursday and announced that effectively immediately, he was closing his business. He let everyone go. There were five employees total. No notice, no severance package, nothing. My husband came home Thursday morning and started putting out resumes right away. He had been with this company for ten years , ever since we moved here.
Today, after putting in more resumes and taking some online assessments he swallowed his pride and filled out an unemployment application. Please pray that one of his resumes will be seen soon and we will not have to be on welfare checks. He's always been a great employee, so I know he will be a blessing to whoever hires him.
its an attack on the middle class.
Lets end this meeting on a hi-note
I'm making a list and checking it twice,
