(the company I'm assigned to needs another tech writer). the cube next to mine is empty, waiting to be filled. It's only $11 an hour, but that's not too bad for this neck-o-the-woods in which I live. Of course, I suspect you don't live anywhere near me.

I'm a fellow member of the unemployed masses and I know just what you're feeling. I can only urge you to keep your chin up, read something inspiring, and try to enjoy the time with your family, knowing that you WILL get a job. You will.

I'm living right now with the constant threat of being one of my company's "cutbacks." It's not a good feeling, and I'm terrified of having to scour the want ads in such a poor economy. I wish there was someway I could help you. My thoughts and well-wishes are with you, man.

Freelance seems pretty dried up these days. I wish you lots of luck. Maybe it's one of those, "When you stop looking, you'll find it," things?! Happy Thanksgiving old buddy!

I hope this ends soon. For your sanity, so you can get writing again, oh yeah and the salary thing too. I know of a job... but it's in NYC, and it's children's book publishing, and it's a job I quit a year ago and I guess my replacement just quit too. So even if you were here in NY I couldn't recommend it to someone I didn't wish to suffer :) Good luck. Aaargh! I’m sorry, I had no idea. I hope this ends soon.
