Default Just Got Laid Off
First time since I was eight years old that I haven't had a job.

Anybody know of anyone hiring in the Logistics Transportation field please shoot me a PM.

Other than that any prayers you could spare would be much appreciated.

Did they at least hook you up with a nice severance package?

Best of luck to you, Al, and don't sweat it too much. Consider the birds of the air, and all that.

Me, I've been laid off more often than a hooker's teddy, and I've always made it through.

Al...sorry to hear the bad news brother. On a good note (not sure if you are looking to relocate or not) but there are TONS of logistics transportation jobs at Fort Lee, Virginia. Being a logistician/transporter for the Army for 23 years...they are looking for us. Thoughts your way brother.

Sorry to hear that, Al. You sure have taken more than your share of bad news in the last year or so. Here's hope and some prayers that the cycle turns around quickly and you get to reap some positives in the near future.
