I have never been so saddened to be an American as I am today. While we do have Obama as president-elect, Americans are still struggling to pay their bills. I work for a major telecommunications company, and the morale is LOWWWWWW. The managers never know if they’re going to have a job or not when they come in.
This is appalling. The Big 3 are no longer "Big" and who the hell knows how long there’ll be 3? My economics professor who is from Africa has said, if a corporation’s self-interests doesn’t serve the community, they will destroy themselves. This has been proven in abundance in the U.S.A.
A classmate classmate of mine’s has been with Chrysler for almost 20yrs and was SHOCKED at an email he received. it was from Chrysler offering a small buyout and it strongly advised he accept it (he did). At the onset, naturally he was shocked, insulted…but since then he’s now in the interviewing process to become plant manager and he’s set to make twice what he made with Chrysler. He’s one of many who submitted their logistics resumes and is now being sought. Many people are finding out that leaving the Big 3 has turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Yes, change is scary…but how can our life get better, if we refuse to adapt? I want to find out what’s in the pot at the end of MY rainbow!

No need to worry just trust in the Lord. Even in these uncertain times His promises remain. Girl, meditate on Psalm 91 it will give you an inner confidence of who you are in Him and that “A thousand may fall at your side, And ten thousand at your right hand; But it shall not come near you.”
People are learning more and more now days that change may be uncomfortable and it may be hard but we can work through the hard times.
Only way to find out what’s in the pot for you is to run for the finish line and collect your prize!
You are right…we have to be willing to adapt…change course quickly when needed…take risks….and embrace NEW avenues that God points us towards.
This country will be facing some turbulent times.
Obama fully realizes that we will enter The Great Depression 2009 if he doesn’t focus on the economy and implement radical changes. I believe that he is sincere in saying that this is his HIGHEST priority… I hope national security is his next highest priority.
The problem is, it took many of us a while to get to where we are now… as a country we are greedy, pretty lazy and we splurge and borrow credit when we don’t have enough to pay it back. As a whole we need to get it together and learn to undo those bad habits.
Slingbox? WOW!! That thing has been on my “wishlist” since it came out at the science fairs! It is so far beyond amazing that words are not enough. No more paying for movies at the hotel. SONY has a “video jukebox” that holds up to 400 DVD’s. Hook Slingbox to THAT and you have access to virtually unlimited movies. Great find. Peace.
