I was "let go" at the beginning of June this year. Almost 5 years as a Supervisor, and a pretty good one at that. The details are too daunting to type here, maybe another time I will tell the whole story. I received a severance, then began receiving unemployment benefits. I am currently seeking employment, but honestly, I don't know if I could work a regular job if I had to. This whole episode threw me for a bipolar loop that was as bad as any I've ever experienced. I am still reeling and it's even worse because I have a wife and daughter relying on me.

Currently I feel unhireable. Physically I am damaged too much to do the things I used to be able to do, such as strenuous physical labor. Things like laboring masonry and such that I did with ease are out of the question, too many surgeries, too many injuries. I am left with only more blue collar jobs, which is not easy because I do not have a degree.

Guess I'm just venting. No idea what I'm going to do.
