Obama Signs Stimulus Yesterday. Today, I Got A New Job.
No joke. Obama signs the bill yesterday, and I just got a call from my agency about a new contract that starts tomorrow.

For everyone else still looking, there's one less person contending with you for the next job.

:toast: What kind of work do you do? I had read about a couple of bridge projects that began work immediately after Obama signed the stimulus.

13. I got an interview tomorrow
Laid off 3 times since 07. I HOPE this time on unemployment is a short one. But this job is almost identical to my last one, and it deals with a more stable market! Congratulations to you!

18. That's wonderful, Yavin4. I hope this is a trend. My company will be closing in
9 days, and I will be out of work.
