A little down right now.....
Last December I left a job I had for 11 years (10 great, 1 a nightmare which is why I started looking) for another position. I started two weeks before Christmas. To make a long story short on February 5th, I was let go. No warning, no nothing. I have excellent skills but have had only one interview so far. I have been taking some computer courses, networking, and sending out resumes. In short I am doing everything I can to get another job. My husband id disabled but his health costs (thank God) are all covered. I applied for unemployment a few days after I was let go. Now I received a letter saying that I have been denied and have to appeal. I am usually pretty upbeat but am just a little down right now. Yes, I know that there are a lot more important problems in the world.

2. I applied for unemployment 20 years ago, had to appeal, and
did get it.
You are doing what you can to get another job, and have skills. I'm placing my bet on fladonkey to win.
:thumbsup: :hug: :kick:
