METALMANJP, and MR. DAVE GENOCIDE,
I don't know either of you, but I know the pain of losing someone. I'm so very sorry for your loses.
There's really nothing anyone can say that can ease your pain right now, while it's so fresh. Just know
that there are others out here, like myself, who understand.
I lost my fiance a year ago June 9th. It was unexpected and a huge shock. The grief has been overwhelming at times.
Take this opportunity to cling to those you love who remain, and anything that honors your friends is a good thing that will
help you to still feel connected to them. Be there the best way you can for their families. And if you believe in an after life, or that
the spirit/energy/soul of a person lives on - know that they are always around you. Don't be afraid to talk to them and about them
to others.
I wish you both the strength and the depth of heart that you'll need to get through this time in your lives.
If you'd like to talk to someone who relates, you can PM me and I will respond.
Most sincerly, Caron.

I hear you... Ive been at home for 2 months now... And Im really glad I will be going to college in autumn. If I wasnt, I would have to look for a regular job, and I have better chances of winning the lotto. And in any case, I will need a part time job soon, when I run out of money.
IDK, for all theyre saying about how we reached the bottom and "there are signs of the economy getting better"... I still think that it will get a lot worse... Im definatly feeling for everyone that is unemployed in these times.

It does suck that most people take certain things for granted. There are so many others out there who would kill to even HAVE a job in this economy. Your friend probably won't realize how lucky she has it until she quits that job. Unless she changes her mood, she'll figure out the truth the hard way.
