I'm back among the unemployed
The business has slowed way down; mostly due to bad management; and since I was making $4 an hour more than the other guy, guess who gets cut :X Oh well, at least it answers the question about the truck...it will be parked for the time being and the iX will continue to be my only mode of transport(and fun). |

Creating my own job is the most likely scenario since there isn't a big market for people over 60 in my area. Ageism is rampant here; I see the same look whenever I enter a room for a job interview; it's always the same..."Oh God, not another old guy!". Today, skill and experience are almost an instant disqualifier...employers want the skill and experience but they don't want it in anyone over 25 years of age |

Hi P, So sorry to learn this news. Are you thinking perhaps of starting your own business now? Something involving computers and training others maybe? Be well, Kelly |

Yeah, gettin older ain't for sissies. With all Peter knows he should be able to figure it out, it's just a matter of getting started. |
