Automotive industry Woes

Posted by LovelyPink | 2008 P-Online | Monday 22 December 2008 1:19 am

After 10 years of working in automotive industry it comes to the end. Some of you may already know I ended or my job has ended last Friday. I’m a contract of one of the big 3, sad to say it is not just laid-off the entire engineering graphics department have been pace out. I guess blame on economic crisis. I’m sure you guys know what’s going on with automotive industry down to hell. The federal aid of automakers I don’t think will do enough to protect auto workers. They have been laid off autoworkers left and right. As a matter of fact, all the big 3 will shutdown numerous plants starts holiday break. This is just not for 1 week; it is for one month or later. Gosh- workers, dealers have been bracing for the big 3 shutdown.

Pretty bad for auto industry, not in medical field for sure. I don’t know what I’m going to do, I’m thinking going back to school finish my degree or get myself interested in medical field.

A friend of mine who is a nurse is getting a MS nursing at Saint Xavier University’s School of Nursing. After she told me about the school I had to find out more about it. Saint Xavier University’s School of Nursing has been recognized as a Center of Excellence in Nursing Education and for past 70 years there are almost 4000 graduates. Indeed one of the best schools in MS nursing program.

3rd week roundup – December

Monday => I stayed home and worried after hubby told me what happened to him. Called the doctor appointment sadly they were busy. Continue worries…

Tuesday => I’m home again trying to convinced hubby to go to the hospital; luckily one of the receptionist called us that they have spot for HB.

Wednesday => I had to work but I kept calling him if he is okay.

Thursday => went to the hospital for 3 tests MRI, EEG and Carotid. We spent all morning at the hospital; I think we got home almost 1pm. I was so tired because I haven’t been sleeping good worry about him. I went straight to bed around 2pm and didn’t get up until the next day 5am.

Friday => I got up and got ready for work. I warm up my car then got a cup of coffee. Oh yeah- we had a snow storm and hubby kept telling me not to go to work. But I insist, but I had to turn around weather just so bad. So, I called Nadean to let her know, she told me to call our boss so I did. To make the long story short, I had to drag myself to work just to end my job. No a good day especially I got stuck in our driveway.

Saturday => Got up late and all sore. Saw hubby getting ready to go to store, I try to stop him but he won’t listened. So, I went back to sleep and I forgot we had a Christmas party to go to.

Sunday => Oh gosh- I don’t feel good knowing tomorrow I’m not going to work. I just sit in front my pc all day and catch up all my assignments.
