Thumbs up After 3 months of unemployment - Finally found a job!

THANK YOU ALL FOR THE KIND WORDS AND SUPPORT!!!

Our St. Louis regional office officially closed it's doors May 11, 2009...

Now, after 3 long summer months of daily searching for a job and scraping by on unemployment and COBRA...

I have FINALLY found a job!!! And a new career!!!

No longer in the insurance business but taking some advise from others and decided to go into the medical pharmaceutical market... Good job security...

I start work on Monday August 17th, 2009 as a Pharmaceutical Specialist... then 8 weeks of training before my new career begins.

Thank God!

Congratulations Tim
I have never met you but from what I hear you are one hell of a Guy and good friend, I hope this new career you have taken on does very well. I really hope to meet you some time this year. I am getting stronger from my Illness called Throat cancer. I do not know as of now if I will be able to make the Chili cook off but I hope I have some one from this area to cruise with. I am unable to make the trip alone in case I have a flat or vehicle troubles, I am unable to change my own tire my self, so I am working on getting stronger for the month of Oct 2009.

God Bless and good luck in your training class

Rudy

Congrats. Today is Chris' last day of work. Store closes on Aug. 22 but he had already scheduled vacation time off. Hopefully he has as good of luck as you did.

Congrats!

Way to go Big Kahuna!

I sense your feelings of relief and excitement of the new career! My wife is a Pharmaceutical Tech and she loves her job. Yes, right now I think there is plenty of job security there. Good luck man!
