You say perish like i would never work again in life if it did go under. Just like in 2006, and 2009, if my current situation was to end I would have to put myself in a NEW SITUATION because I still have to

Eat
Pay rent
Watch Cable
Have Safe Adult Fun-Masybe

LOL

For the sake of the people who are desperately looking for employment advice in your area, please do not become a career counselor....unless you already are, then that would be pretty funny.

When I pointed out that those proposed cutbacks could, via house vote, well filter down to putting more into basic education and cutting back on funded agencies such as those for whom you work, you scoffed and again said that the agency for whom you work was immune.
