Adventures in Unemployment

Back from the Dead (power)

Y'know, it just seems typical that I start a blog, get interested in doing it, and my electricity gets turned off!!! Just one of the many prizes in being unemployed. It will be back on today,though... Made a Blood Pact with Georgia power, and sold a few pieces of my soul, but I will have the gift of light again!
I did get a lead on a job that will be created in East Point,though. Hope that leads to something.
Not much to say yet today... but we shall see... the day is young yet...

... it should be called DISABLED Veterans Affairs!!




Just had to post this..... found out today that I cannot get any assistance from the VA because I dont have a service connected disability rating.... so because I was fortunate enough not to get injured when I was in Iraq, the only dental assistance I get is to pay $206 for 3 extractions, with no follow-up-care.... forget the fact that I was exposed to Depleted Uranium rounds on an M1A1 tank...

Every day I find another reason to weep for humanity.....

I guess we'll start from here....

Well, here we go... Ive been unemployed since Oct, and I'm still looking... Damn the Braves for not having me back this season!! I will try to give you, gentle reader, an insight into the life of an unemployed animation major with a wife, 2 children, and 1 income...

In any case, hold on, because to let you know in advance, the ride has been rough, and I dont see it smoothing out any time soon.

Feel free to leave a comment, advice, or, hell, even a job lead!
