Default Finally, I can breath again!
Well, after being layed off from the steel mill the last 6 months, I got a call yesterday from a new ( still under construction) facility for a job interview, went and interviewed today and got a job offer before I left. Go back to work a week from Monday. THANK GOD!!! I think I've had enough time off to last me for awhile. Get some bills payed off and maybe I'll just reward myself with that new 40D or some new glass I've been wanting.
Mark

Welcome back to deadline/quanta stress. I hope you still have time to take photos and post them.

That's great news, Mark...I can relate. A lot of us went through or are going through the same situation in this area. Hopefully, it gets all turned around soon for everyone.

Mark, you have a great portfolio and a wonderful talent for photography.
This must be very rewarding during difficult times as you've had in the past.
Now things are looking up, that's great.
How helpfully important and relaxing was your photography during your down time?
I wish I had a talent to embrace for a little morale booster if I needed it.
Congrats,

Dave

Hey there, as I am now in the same boat as you were I can feel your pain, I just wanted to pass on my Warmest congratulations and know your confidence and self esteem will be heading skywards now.
Well done, I wish you all the very best for the future. Now lets hope my turn is not too far away.
God Bless.
David.
