My brother Mike is now working full time..
I posted this about Mikes situation a few months ago.. He is now full time..still has no insurance, was denied private insurance.. and is hoping and praying for the public option as we all are..

But he is full time now.. which is huge, when you think about paying bills etc. Huge..

We are crawling out of this hole, and no one can stop us.. especially the republicans and their syncopates in the media who are invested in failure of the Democrats... NOT GOING TO HAPPEN

If you have not figured it out by now.. I am a happy person today.. :)

2. Good for him, and I second the emotion.
Good luck to everyone else, and I hope you can spare a little for me in return!

3. yay for your brother!
I temped for 6 months, after being unemployed for five, and being hired as permanent in Aug was a life-changer for me. The pay sucks, but the benefits rival, if they're not better than, those of gov't jobs. Good for him!

So glad to hear about another person finding work! GREAT news - and fulltime at that!

Whenever I see a storefront vacant where there used to be a small business, it just makes me wince.

If you're not independently wealthy, nothing trumps a job!
