I know that if I get the axe, I'm looking @ payout of 3months worth. That's what happens when you don't burn all your time off.

No severance? Just got the 'pack ur stuff and get out'?

Yea, I feel your pain.. I am currently unemployed as well. Several of my buddies have been recently laid off by supposed "rock solid" companies like Kodak, Novartis, and the state. Like Rescuer says, it is best to apply for unemployment. I believe they still pay out 3/4 of your original wage/salary for a good 6 months. You can also push for an extension, usually 1-2 months more. That should buy you some time. Sorry to hear, and best of luck.

If you want anyone on here to help you find a job I'd post up your resumé or at least your qualifications/training/experience

What's your background? I think Comcast has a few open positions open for customer service related jobs.

If your car is expensive, maybe you should sell it and get a cheap used car? I know it sucks, but, c'mon, whats worth more... the car or like, living?!
