Post #39,409 by boxley 5/21/02 4:27:40 PM Reply	You only have one choice To live and accept what happens or not. Your kid would rather live under a bridge with dad than without you altogether. Commute like I do. Rent a room out to help with the mortgage. Work as a car salesman night and weekends so you can have days free for interviews. Apply for a sales job at compuserve or appleshop so you could help people make choices. You will also make contacts. Lose the house wife and kids and come sit under the bridge with me and doc, we'll drink cheap wine and you drink water and we will discuss philosphy and usta whazzes. Do day Labor. thanx, bill TAM ARIS QUAM ARMIPOTENS
Post #39,412 by orion 5/21/02 4:33:58 PM Reply	Thanks Bill what you said makes sense. I shouldn't kill myself because of my family needing me. I will do what I can to survive, even if my former employer may have blacklisted me. I'll live on, somehow, and face my demons right in the face. Let the fckers who screwed me over roast in Hell, as they deserve to be there. I am not sure about the commute, I still have my fear of highways and am sticking to local roads. On the highways I drive like Captain Kirk, if you know what that means, so I avoid the highways. Once I had a good job, but it turned sour due to boneheaded management and HR taking more control of the IS department. Then I lost it, and cannot find another to take its place. But I will find another someway somehow. I am free now, to choose my own destiny.*

Even though everyone is out to get you, it doesn't matter unless you let them win.
