The company my husband worked for prior to his layoff received a large construction project contract. This means he could possibly be rehired by February 2010.
I’m still angry about the events surrounding the layoff and would prefer he tell them where they can shove their job offer but there would be hundreds, if not thousands, who would gladly take his spot. On top it that, the position pays prevailing wage – which is nearly twice his normal earnings.
So, here’s to hoping. Here’s to health care, a steady paycheck, and a good night’s sleep.
I’m hoping for the best.

Sometime you just have to swallow your pride. Good luck to your husband getting the position.

I agree with Edwin. Swallow your pride and go for it. In today’s economy people are lining up for $8 per hour/no benefit Wal-Mart jobs.
Good Luck

saying a prayer for you guys over here. We’ve been in a situation where my husband had to do that too…I understand the “shove it” feeling.

Completely understand – similar situation with my husband’s employer. Hoping for the best!

That would be wonderful, especially if it started earlier, in January.
