well i just lost one of my jobs. this puts a serious halt to my audio hobby. its hard to try to get Grados and ALO cables and Darths without the $20 p/h paying job.

this sucks man.

Man, that bites. Sorry to hear that, but it will give you more time to listen to tunes. On the down side, the recession has only begun.

What job did you lose?

Also good luck without it/replacing it.

IMO the recession began a few months ago. People are just scared to call it what it is. That being said, unemployment is still relatively low, so you should be able to find something to help you ride out the storm.

well i'm not unemployed i had two jobs. now i'm down to one. but the one job i had was just like a part time job it wasn't my main job cuz it only pays half of what my other job did. but i lost my main job on some bullshyt but whatever it sucks having corrupt managers. shyt is closing down soon anyways so whatever. i'm in school right now too. i put my resume online like yesterday and today i got like 3 phone calls lol. but i dunno if i should get a new job or just stick with my part time til school is up in april. any advice?

I hope your CV wasn't written like the above post. If you could rephrase it maybe we could better understand what you mean.

So did you, or did you not loose your main job, and if one or both of the jobs were closing up, wouldn't you know to be looking? If I were my parents I would say that one job is plenty if you are in school. However, you know your own limits so it's up to you.

Well a "recession" is technically defined as decline in gross domestic product for two or more consecutive quarters, so if the economists are saying we are not officially in a recession, then we're not in a recession. That doesn't mean that we're not amidst an economic downturn, it's just not yet a recession.

sorry for the confusion. I lost my main job. I still have my part time. Though now it has been converted to a Full Time job. i mean its enough to sustain me but i'm greedy you could say lol.

Can you handle a full time job and then another job, and then get decent grades while still having time to eat and sleep and have a life?

You know your answer already.

Still and all, it sucks loosing a job, and while I don't think EVERYTHING happens for a reason, maybe this did?
