Just when it can't get any worse

Post by bertie 83 »

I'm getting laid off at work. Jobs are slim but not giving up hope. Anyone know of any jobs in the uk. I don't care what it is will do anything as long as it's full time,

Is the unemployment situation as bad in the UK as it is in the US?

My wife has taken lots of extra shifts to aid the transition. I could be out of work for about 6 mnths at this rate and still survive easily. If I fall straight into something we will have a good amount to hasten our move and aka fish house lol
