...or a job if anybody is looking for help.

A friend of mine here at work just got notified that he's on borrowed time because his position is being eliminated this summer. He has a son that just turned 2, just got in to a new house and his wife is still in school working on her teaching degree. This couldn't come at a worse time for him and his family. I'm already trying to set him up with some head hunters to get the ball rolling and minimize his down time but he could use all the help, prayers and thoughts he can get. So y'all talk to the Big Man upstairs and let him know Phil needs a hand, please?

    What does Phil do?
    Check your lips at the door woman. Shake your hips like battleships. Yeah, all the white girls trip when I sing at Sunday service.

    Hoping for the best! This is a 'really' tough time for many. If you have a family and are fairly young, just starting out--even rougher.

    is relocation an option for him at all?

    I ask as we always have several IT jobs here at our bank that pay well but never seem to be able to get filled and are always on the look out.

    Regardless I hope everything works out for him, prayers sent his way.
