Thank you, Janice, for this topic. I was a accountant clerk. I had made the third layoffs of my company, leaving me to be the last accountant clerk for two companies. I had two wonderful bosses and worked 15 mins from home. TM hit me a few weeks before my 38th birthday. After 3 years with TM and it didn't look like I would be returning back to work any time soon. We had been going to Corpus Christi, Texas once a month to see friends and with the gas prices, we decided to retired in CC, TX. Would like to return to work, but how to & keep up the PT at the same time? I too, live on Social Security disability and Long Term disability. Hope everyone is doing what makes them happy right now, Todd in CC, TX TM @ T-4 to T-8 on April 1, 2002

I have been curious about something for a while and since things have kind of slowed down, want to ask you all what you did before TM hit and if you were able to go back to it or if you are doing something new. I am including even those who just read these emails and don't usually respond. I would like to hear from everybody and would think all of us would be interested. I will start: I was a school nurse's secretary/assistant in a large high school for 19 years. I absolutely loved it - everyday was different, as you can imagine working with high schoolers! Our school nurse was gone a lot to other schools we were responsible for, so I was left alone quite a bit and handled many different situations. I was well trained for this and it was great. Janice
