uh or you can actively look for a new job

That's another full day of studying to get out of property management. Start 3 month / 6 month goals. You were talking about certifications? Make Friday the day you study for those.

Sorry to hearz. Like Chip said at least yer job is still in tact. Just roll with it, maybe get a weekend job at lowes or something.

Good Luck

The thought has crossed my mind, actually. I don't think they are hiring, though. Plus, they are going to want more than 16 hours a week out of me.

I can't do any more than that with my current job and school. Part time work is going to be very difficult.

I did not leave out a "don't" I see cut hours coming or cut pay. I see it happening if things continue on the way we do or somebody getting "let go" there is literally nothing going on...

I missinterpreted what you meant by "that coming here." I though you meant "more money" which is why I thought the "don't" was missing (ie, you don't see more money coming from the job). You meant time or salary reductions being the "that." In which case, what you said makes sense.

My brain hurts now. I am going to go lay down before I hurt myself.

Thats what Im doing if it happens to me. We are activley hiring so that scares me because noone wants to have plan development done in the summer, they want things built in the summer...

This Friday will be dedicated to finishing my coursework for this quarter. Subsequent Fridays will be dedicated to job hunting.

My only ray of hope is that Bobbie actually received a merit increase that is more than my decrease. Her job is going quite well and she is succeeding in it. She actually makes more than twice what I make now.
