I work as a construction super. I got to work this morning to find out that our company lost their line of credit last week….. and I am on the job not knowing if I will be paid or not. Hopefully I will receive some compensation. The company that I work for is small so few will notice. I will meet with the company that is to take over the job tomorrow ant the management company so we can make the transition. At least O saw it coming. Now I guess that I can get a few of those woodworking projects done…LOL Thanks for reading. Russell

When I found out, they told me they decided to file bankruptcy late on Friday and didn’t have tiime to call me and tell me my check was going to bounce. That was Tuesday morning. It did, what a hell of a mes that was;-(( -- "some old things are lovely, warm still with life ... of the forgotten men who made them." - D.H. Lawrence Wake Up America!!
