May have a lot of fishing time very soon!

It looks like I may be getting laid off from work within the next few weeks. Obviously I am hoping that I dodge it but my gut feeling is that isn't a possibility so Britney and I are as ready as we can be for what is coming. The company is being pretty good about the deal with giving us a pretty good severance package that will come to 6 weeks pay (one weeks pay for every year I have worked there. I have been there over 5 years so they rounded up to 6 years), 2 weeks pay in lieu of notice, my pension, 120 hours of vacation pay, 8 hours personal time pay, and 12 hours of sick pay. It will be a bad deal if it happens but we have been down to 24 hour work weeks for a while now and this severance pay is based on 40 hour weeks so that's dang near twice as much pay as we have been getting lately. I haven't been happy there for quite some time and we have talked about me finding another job so this is a chance for me to make a change that will make benefit us in the long run and make me a lot happier. We will make the best out of a bad situation and I am excited to go wherever this experience takes us.
