Lolli = Unemployed as of Thursday, December 18, 2008. Pending good behavior and consistency of my good production standards , severance pay is $1872.00-- 4 weeks pay. Plus the four paid holidays coming up. I can't complain. It' s truly more than I expected. Word is "it may be over tomorrow." Honda is pulling all of their tools by Thursday, which means end of production by Wed. at the latest, possibly tomorrow.
And, so far, it's only me. I'm very sure Richie isn't far behind, but you know what? Every little bit TRULY does count if you are enough aware of it to notice. I pray that I STAY as aware. Wish me luck kids. This should be quite a ride for a couple of aging hippies!!! xox

I wish I knew what to say... I wish I could change the fact that you even have to WORK at all...
All I know is what I've been taught by the strong, encouraging people in my life:
This TOO shall PASS.
Not much, but we know you come from strong, STRONG stock that has endure so very much. Whatever LITTLE we have, is shared.
Combine that with the knowledge that we're also a 'resourceful' bunch. STAY AWARE, there's MORE right around the corner.
God will provide. Never doubt it. Never.

Thank you, Deb. I'm with ya all the way. Come to find out tonite, Honda is paying our severence & last weeks's wages due to the "quickness of our closures". I was let go tonite with a smile and a "turn in your tools"./..../...but, I'm being paid through Thursday.Life is still good!!! Damn them! :-)
