Corporate America left me a little over 8 years ago. Now I'm a consultant
and I own an on-line kegging supply business.

Oh, and one of my clients is the very same company that canned me 8 years
ago. I work there 3 days / week for 30% more pay per (40 hour) week than I
made as an Employee. They are begging for a 4th day and I remind them that I
originally signed up for only 2 days / week.

Sometimes it sucks being laid off, or so some people tell me......

Thanks,
Tom Hargrave

 Rob,

They let me go in January with 90 days to find another position. If not I
got a GENEROUS separation package, retraining $$$, etc, etc, that I'd be
stupid not to take.  Very fortunate I got my full retirement and medical.
Had not planned to retire yet (due to the economy and job market) , but oh
well, crap happens.  We'll deal with it.  Wife is still working, and that
helps allot.  Golf starts 5/1, and the honey-do list is growing <vbg>

Obligatory MBZ content: I'll have more time to fix all my oil leaks on my
350SDL rodbender (274K miles...and still ticking)

I'm curious to see how this formatting works out as I'm using gmail now, not
the Notes account from Big Blue....
