Lay off highly probable!

A few of you mentioned part time work, any ideas? Won't most pt jobs be min wage?

Alot of them, not sure exactly what skills and experience you have. Best idea is to take a job starting F/T, and then downshift, as others have said. The automotive sales manager job, for example, maybe once you have been there a few months, you could offer to work part time, since dealerships are open all the time, there is probably an opportunity for that. Might be for less pay, but doesnt sound like that is a huge concern for you.

Also, I would kill for my current employer to come and tell me that I'm getting 10 weeks of severance pay. 10 weeks paid vacation? Yes please, sign me up. I would probably sing and dance my way out of the office. So congrats, and good luck!
