Today was a great day, I got up, my Husband was off to work, brought kids to School, sat down to work. Got a call from a past associate who needed assistance, so I met her at a Restaurant and helped her fix her tech problem (she bought me lunch ) YUM. As you can see my day was busy, but I was happy with how the day was going...
Kids got out of School, I took them to Loemans Department store (someone at the office told me about the great deals) The deals were not so great.
My daughter said she was feeling sick and wanted to go home, Upon returning home she went straight to bed.
One of my clients sent me an email "Denise thanks for all you've done, but our home search, need to take a back seat, I lost my job.." I sat down to Dinner thinking wow job losses are hitting close to home, not only is she a client but a great friend, I have been friends with her for over 20 years.
Then as we got done with dinner, the phone rang, my husband said "it's your brother"
I handed the phone to my husband, because I was working on the computer.
Guess what happened to my brother today? Yes he got laid off. His boss about 5 years back begged for him to move back to California from Oregon because he wanted my brother to run the machine shop.
Well if you know me, I am one to always want things better for everyone around me.
I guess I will not get any sleep tonight.
I sent both of them LinkedIn invitations, in hopes that my 260,000 connections will find somehow to help them out.
Please send out a wish or a Prayer for them and all the other people who have lost their jobs...
