Afraid of losing it? No. Afraid of losing everything else? Yes. The tax returns couldnt have come (as of yet, they're not here.. but within a few weeks!!) at a better time. If I can sustain myself until the weather turns into something other than FUCKINGRETARDEDAWFULFUCKSNOWFUCKICE-RAIN then I can take what money I have.. run south to where it's warm and live well off the refuse of people richer than we.
Nope, I told my employer I was going to quit at a certain time. This was before the crisis started. When that certain time finally arrived the crisis was already well under way.... Being the stubborn ass I am, I still quit...
I AM worried I won't find a new job soon... ( a job that fits me a bit better)... But luckily I still make some money with local politics (not much though).

My work hours have been cut and everyone at the company have to take a voluntary day off each week as the company copes with the reduced profit. It only started happening so it's not too bad yet. I think the company will not fire anyone unless the profit really starts to plummet. I hope I won't get laid off because I like my job and it's a real bitch to find work, especially in this economy.
I'm a carpenter, and business has been very slow lately. Few houses are being built and few people are spending money on remodeling. That doesn't bode well for me. There is work out there, but the industry is super competitive for every available job. The next year will be very interesting. I'm trying to be stingy with my money in preparation for some lean times ahead.
Took a $8000 base pay cut and my commission suck these days...
yes...
yes...
Obviously with so many people that are losing their jobs at least though the company I work for are an Indian company so they are a bit less affected so hopefully I will be ok
I feel you...I work for a domestic auto manufacturer, need I say more.
My wife is in the insurance biz, and they're still solid, so we're lucky for her stable income.
What are you a repo man?

I look mature and knowledgeable, and actually know my job really well...customers trust me. I just quit one company and got a job right away with another.
Since people stay home and watch tv when money is tight, I have lots of work.
I do DishNetwork installation and repair...easy work and pays real well.
