Hope they have something for you and you won't be completely out of a job. It seems as if keeping a job these days is much more of a struggle than actually doing the job.

I'd been cut down to 18 hours a week at my job of the past 4 years -- and I'm pretty sure the district manager is trying to get rid of me (nothing provable, of course). I've been trying to find a replacement, but so far nothing has worked out. And now, what with Tom's broken ankle, I guess I'll just have to live with it. I really don't want to be put in the position of having to sign up for social security before I'm 66 (three more years to go).

Hang in there. I'm wishing you all the best. They don't call us wage slaves for nothing...
