I have been laid off from the car dealership I worked at. The dealership wasn't selling vehicles because of the suckhole economy, so about a third of the employees at Stanley Automotive Enterprises (that's my dealership PLUS all the others in the corporation, about 15 total) had to be let go to keep the business from sinking. Six of the employees at my dealership were let go yesterday at 5pm.

Now, I know it's a little premature of me to ask, and most of you dislike me, but I could really use some mojo right now, if it's not too much to ask.

Here's wishing you find a new job real soon, Rockie. One with health benefits and paid maternity leave and room to grow within the organization.

Stop looking at me like that: I'm also hoping it's one with extremely limited internet access.

Mucho mojo to you, Rocky. 

Don't know if this will help, or if you're even close to the place, but my hubby works for State Farm.  See if you can get on in one of the operations centers.  Yeah, you may have to be on phones for a while, but there's a TON of room for advancement for anyone willing to put the time and effort in, GREAT health benefits, and job security.  People are ALWAYS going to need insurance.  Some of the positions require a college education (of any kind), but I'm sure they take military service into account.  Good luck!

I believe he means that there will never be a better or more profitable time to be a crack ho/welfare mom.

Or you could apply at McDonalds, they're always looking for old folks and tards to sweep the floor.

I'm sure it wouldn't take more than a BJ or two in the bathroom to get hired.

A few months ago, me & 3 friends went to Syracuse. We stopped at the duty free store at the border to pick up enough liquor to drown several dolphins. While wandering around the aisles, there was a TV with an ad for something that just kept playing that song over & over again. On a loop. Forever.

Funny story, the B-52's vesion of that song is how I got the name Rock Lobster. It involves NAS JAX and the enlisted club there, a really good Boston Bruins game, several pitchers of Amberbock, and kareoke by my lovely assisstant Amie J.

But thanks for the great memories, dude. I wish my ass was still the size it was when I was dubbed Rock Lobster.

Someone looked under a dock,

And there they saw, a rock.

But it wasn't a rock...

Was a rock dog LOBSTER!
