hubs just lost his job out of the blue...all was well. Today it wasn't. I think it has to do

[Demsrule86]

with the difficulty getting parts and supplies and it will only worsen thanks to the upswing in the pandemic...damn GOP!

[PortTack]

1. Sorry..that's stressful for sure!

[Demsrule86]

4. Yeah me too...ever since the pandemic...he gets job and then loses them...very volatile.

They never even told him why he was leaving or gave him paperwork...I doubt they can win a case for firing for cause.

[Treefrog]

20. Did he ask them why?

How bizarre.

[Walleye]

2. Well shit. I sure hope something good turns up for him soon. That sucks

[Demsrule86]

6. It does but on the bright side, we sold our other house and have money.

[ProfessorGAC]

3. Well That Stinks!

I'm assuming he's immediately eligible for unemployment pay.
Seems he should be.
But, if you're right about the cause, that seems to mean it's temporary. Sure hope so.

[Demsrule86]

7. He was also asked to go days a week or so ago and said he didn't want to...if you are asked to go

days, you go days even if it seems like they are asking you. He is an exGM'er and still doesn't get the real job world. That may have been part of it.

22. That's probably why. in some companies,

what sounds like a request is actually an order to do it or you're gone.

[SheltieLover]

5. Sure hope he finds work quickly!

[Demsrule86]

8. Fingers crossed! There seem to be more jobs but there are shortages and manufacturing is

affected.

[SheltieLover]

11. So sorry to hear!

There is a huge rail freight disruption from west coast into Chicago. Not sure where you are, but maybe they will resolve this & rehire quickly! 🤞

[liberal N proud]

9. Everything is becoming more difficult to get

We are experiencing material delays where I work as well.

[Demsrule86]

10. Yep, the line has been sent home several times lately.

15. Thanks for that. There have been shortages and more to come, I see.

[SheltieLover]

16. I hope it resolves quickly!

[greatauntoftriplets]

17. OMG, I am so sorry to hear this.

Is there any chance they'll call him back once the materials shortage is resolved?

[paleotn]

18. Crap! Best hopes your way!

[bucolic_frolic]

19. Yes supply chains are complicated compared to 30 years ago

More parts, more outsourcing, from overseas, from small specialty companies. Time was everything was made in the mid-west. No more.
