I'vejust turned 60 and can't get job.

I was fired from last one. Bad attitude. Mom just died but that can't follow me can it? Have degree and lot's of experience. Not even part time at Lowe's. I have part time at local Civic Center moving in shows but it's about 2 weeks out of month. I'm despairing.

I hate staying at home. I really like to work.

If your insurance finds out that you got into a wreck while working from your car, they might refuse to pay for the accident.

You need commercial auto insurance to deliver commercial goods.

What made them think you had a "bad attitude?" Or was that just an excuse to get rid of somebody past the current corporate expiration date of 50?
