Au revoir, mes amis...

[RSY]

My family is entering some dire financial straits as we speak, and I need to spend as many waking moments, as possible, trying to find a way to literally keep the lights on and food on the table for my wife and two girls.

I'll still lurk, now and then, and may even chime in if I see someone about to put 55 grains of Re-7 in a .30-06 case, or similar. Keep the fire fed, but don't chop up my stump for wood.

I joined this forum way back in March of 2003 when it was first fired up, and it has provided me some great camaraderie, learning and experiences. It means a lot to me, and I truly hope to see y'all in greener pastures.

Vaya con dios, amigos.

Man that just sucks. I have been looking for job for quite a while. I haven't been with out a job for this long in almost 30 years. It is getting crazy out there, keep your powder dry.

[nemhed]

Well, God's blessings on you and your family. I'll include you in my prayers.

Wish you the best and hope it all works out for you. See you back here.

[J Miller]

Scott,

Don't go away. Stick around. The guys on this forum have helped me mentally, spiritually, and even financially. We need you, and I think you need us too.

Hang in there, I do know what financial distress is.

Be well friend.

Scott,
I hope things sort themselves out and you come out stronger than before.
Keep us posted should you need help.

[2ndovc]

I hate to hear that.
Unfortunately I'm afraid it's going to be happening more and more to people we know ( or sorta know).

Take care of yourself and your family the best you can and be well.

Get yourself a library card ( I think most are online these days), check in once and a while and let us know how you're doing.

Your friend,

Ditto. Having survived a bleak 3-year period finance-wise, I can relate. Keep you head above ground, the right situation will come along.

[gundownunder]

I'd suggest that you try and keep your place by the fire, if for no other reason than the moral support your mates on here can give you.

This is also a good place to stop and recharge your batteries for a little while at the end of a long day stomping through the badlands that the world out there is becoming.

Good luck.

[kimwcook]

Scott, sure hope things turn around for you and yours. As already stated, don't hesitate to ask if needed. Would sure hate to lose you.

[O.S.O.K.]

Best of luck Scott. I know that we'll see you back soon.

[Ben_Rumson]

Good luck Scott..It takes a little rain to make a rainbow..And good things are found at the end of them!

[RKrodle]

Hey Buddy, I know you will come thou this fine because of the quality of person you are. But If I can help let me know and stay in touch.

[dr walker]

Best wishes for you and your family.

[JReed]

Hang in there Devil Dog. With all of us praying for ya things will get better.

+1 big time--lock and load.

Scott,
We are with 'ya brother. Good things come to people who are concerned about themselves and their families. This trash is gonna pass. Us oldtimers have seen these things come and go--'ya just gotta dig your heels in and weather the storm. ---------------------Stay cool as you and your family are in our prayers------------Sixgun

Everyday I wake up and wonder whether or not I will still have a job by the end of the day. Fortunately I am primarily compensated by a commission which helps the company, but now they are putting a cap on my monthly commission(boss says we will negotiate the difference every 90 days, yea right, just give me what you owe me!). SO, hang in there Scott, seems like alot of us are either head'n that way or are there too. Last time it was like this, I had to start my own company. Made a go of it for 15 years and sold high, but at my age I do not know if I could do that all over again.

[Bogie35]

I will be praying for you, Scott.
You'll be back soon.

Sincerely,
bogie

[Ysabel Kid]

God bless, good luck, and we'll keep you in our prayers Scott!

[rjohns94]

Scott, You are in my prayers. send me a PM with your address please. Keep your seat at the fire, we will all be hear to support you. Blessings my friend.

[RSY]

Many thanks to all of you, gentlemen. The effects of your prayers and well-wishes are already palpable, and I know they will give me strength. My prayers go out for all of you, in return.

Yours,
Scott

I feel deeply for you friend.
Aussie is just starting to feel the real pinch, the mining industry across the board from coal to even gold is laying off workers. I still have a job, but dont know for how much longer. Adversity breeds inginuity, dont give up friend.
