What is your personal situation?
We've been receiving a lot of rosy reports lately that the economy is improving yet it doesn't really seem like that for our family. What about you?

6. It's complicated. I just gave notice today to my current emmployer.
April 11 I start working somewhere else.
I'm switching from the power side back over to
traffic signals for the time being. Better money
and no night shift. I'm till waiting for the IBEW
to call and put me to work. I was accepted by them,
but they have been laying off instead of hiring.
Soooo........
oh, I've been living in my truck for almost 4 months.
Again, it's complicated, but basically I was
trying to save money while keeping myself flexible
for the IBEW call out. I can afford an apartment
I just chose not to. I'll be returning to the
world of apartment dwellers soon.
So Edweird joined the IBEW and they're not putting him to work. In the mean time it sounds like his current job is related to electrical work.
Shouldn't he be doing the proper solidarity thing and refuse the job since that's taking one away from his IBEW brothers?
