Man that is rough, and what’s sad is they really aren’t the only ones. Anyone who is regular here at CAPC got some similiar stories about how the recession has affected “life as normal” for them?
Actually, I had a very similar circumstance before the recession hit. Lost my job, had to move in with the parents for a few months before we moved to louisville to go to seminary where I ended up working at Panera for a while. It was pretty discouraging but could have been a lot worse.
