Thanks for the support and kind words everyone. I have only worked for the one outfit since getting out of the Navy five years ago. Nothing concrete has happened yet, and I have always know it is a possibility. I have never been "let go" so it is a weird feeling. I known this is how the industry works, which is why I am currently in school for process instrumentation and calibration, as well as having a couple irons in the fire at the Boeing plant in Everett. My wife is awesome and sees this as a total team effort. I'm sure it will all turn up in spades, fortune favors the prepared.
