I've been laid off since June of last year. I work in the transportation field in Pittsburgh where I handle logistics, safety & training, and management. The job market is tough but I keep sending applications and resumes daily. Prayers are welcomed to assist my endeavors.

You both still work? Where do you find the time? The website, the tradeshows & a day job.

Sorry to hear about that Chuck, I will pray for you. Would it be possible to re- invent yourself? Try to learn a different trade, thats what I did years ago. Just an idea, I hope the best for you and the people that depend on you. Bless your heart, some job prayers, on their way.

I graduated from college in 1968 as an electrical engineer.  Worked for six years for Kentucky Utilities, then went to work for an electrical contractor building coal burning and nuclear power plants.  I was with the contractor for 12 years until the company fell on hard times and I was laid off.  Then went to work for the Tennessee Valley Authority.  TVA is a federal agency created by an act of congress in 1933.  We provide electrical power in a seven state area around the Tennessee River valley.  I spent the last 25 years of my career with TVA.  I retired this past November.

My hobbbies now include knife collecting (which I have gotten more into since retiring.  For instance I just joined the Case Collectors Club), guns and hunting, travel, and genealogy.

The Uncle Wiskers moniker came afterwards, from my nephew.
I use it for my pit carvings.

With a nickname like uncle whiskers, I would have never guessed you were a corrections officer.

Whew!
I would have thought it would have been very odd if the inmates gave you such a name.
