Living check to check and in need of work fast.

I am a career professional sales rep with Cisco sales experience.

I and my family reside in North Carolina but I would consider any opportunity anywhere at this time. If you have any opportunities or suggestions please pm me. I thank you all in advance.

3. Thank you and I appreciate your sentiment. My wife has Multiple Sclerosis
so naturally she hasn't worked in many years. My oldest son has special needs too. I really hope your situation is stable and comfortable. Take care.

7. Yes I did work in RTP. I left a great job to join Cisco in '00 only to be
layed off '01. I only mentioned the Cisco experience in the op due to its name recognition. I have been working in office products/printing/paper handling solution sales since.

Are you a current/former Cisco employee?

9. Thanks-I actually went to their site and saw a posting which was dated
the 8th and when I drilled down it said it had been filled. I plan to network with some friends I know over there who hopefully can open some doors. Tell hubby thanks for the heads up though!

I do love du for the community it is!

5. Tis hard. Tis a great loss a job. Remember what matters is the kids.
When you have to time from your job search, take the kids out and play hard with them. Take them hiking. Build a fort. Play for hours on end with them. And then - despite this loss - you have turned lemons into lemon-aid.

10. That is so true, unfortunately hindsight for me
Trying to keep your children's mother alive for there sake at all cost, it is just as important to take time with the kids after all thats why we struggle. Mine are ok now,and my wife is still here for my efforts, but if I could have been a fly on the wall I would have acted differently with the same results, just getting past the hindrances of the trauma I felt.

12. I have an e-mail with phone numbers for jobs in NO
the mail says they're for construction, but I would imagine a lot of companies will be hiring to rebuild/upgrade infrastructures. It through some religious organization. I could forward it to you, and you could call the toll free numbers and ask questions?
