I know I've not been on here in awhile. It's been a couple of days. Especially today. We were called in for another big meeting. It looks like a lot of our orders have dryed up. We have orders but a lot of companies and facilities are waiting for stimulis money to come in so they can use that money instead of their own. Really sucks because there companies like ours that are now waiting on them to place orders so we can keep our jobs. But it looks like after the 16th of next month manufacturing is going to be working 32 hour weeks, and there will be 2 weeks when everyone has to take off to save on money and not get paid. The first week we will all be off for the 6th. So I can apply for unemployment or use my PTO well since I went to Raleigh I don't have that much saved up yet, and I want to hang onto some of it for Christmas time, because we don't know what will happen between now and than. Luckily my group is one of the few that only are required to take the one week off, because we are working on important projects that will help the future of the company. So we could all use the prayers that things start to pick up real quick. I can't afford to be off work too long. So now I'll be cutting corners in everything. No going out, no buying things I don't need, and thinking of what I can do without and what I can't. Well I'm going to bed and hope I can sleep. Hang in there, I will be thinking about you and sending good thoughts your way

Thanks Dani and Colleen, it's so quiet at work with some people gone. I don't even want to know how quiet it will be when people are gone on Fridays and the weeks when people are gone. I hope things pick up everywhere in the country. For everyone's sakes.
