Tell me about it man. It is not so much the numbness as the pain. Hell it hurts to lift a glass of water or a beer. Now that sucks.

Bummer Phil! We'll say a prayer for you. Hope it all works out.

By the way, if you use a straw you don't have to lift your beer!

You know that was suggested one night when we went out with a bunch of friends to Applebee's. I got the big beer and they asked for a straw for me since it was too heavy to lift. So glad everyone is thinking of me.

Great news gang I'm a former member now I've been working for SEARS CRC (carry-in repair center) in the parts dept and except for getting there at 7 am its a great job so far, and most weeks I'll be off by 3:30 Fridays. Wish me luck, Thanks!

Good Luck Phrog!! I was out-of-work for @ 5 months last fall! Landed the best job in my life recently! Brand new facility, 2 miles from my home, better pay, fully automated with robots, etc. Not bad for a 57 yr. old! They provide all of the training also. There are jobs out there, you just have to be very aggressive in your search! I did not give up, but managed to get quite a few things done, while I was out-of-work!

Sears was a little upset that in my old work I didn't use handheld infared scanners, but they are real easy to use I already have discovered shortcuts that people that have been there years didn't know about. And their inventory system and computer database is almost exactly like my old works. SO its a breeze and my superiors are amazed

Very cool!!! I'm glad you like it!!! That's have the battle with a new job! IMHO
