I too made bad choices when younger and was having too much fun...
Now I am unemployed since Dec 18th, the owner of the small business where I worked for 16 years decided he had enough and was time too scale way back. He was starting to have a hard time making payroll etc, so it is time to move along. I will collect a little Unemployment
insurance that I paid into forever and get some family matters looked after.
My mother had passed away in September, my Father had been living basically in a hospital bed for months, waiting to get into a nursing home and thankfully that is in place now. Obtaining a Power of Attorney for my father and dealing with the
insurance/pension people is a world of fun on its own. He did serve in the Canadian Military so the Department of Veterans Affairs had been extremely helpful in assisting me with looking after his affairs.
Now I need to clean out their apartment, put things in storage and sell off the rest. There are documents and papers in many locations that need to be checked out and dealt with or shredded. As an only child it can be a little overwhelming at times.
After all that, I get to try and enter the workforce again by seeking out a job that hopefully doesn't have me greeting people at the local Wal*Mart...
