It's been FOREVER since I've looked at these e-mails and groups. Since I no longer I have a job, now I have the time (but I'm not sure if I enjoy that). I'm sorry you're unemployed. I was "separated" from my former company almost two months ago. Ugh. And I'm 20 weeks pregnant. Awesome. I have no idea how to look for jobs these days.
