    Few words can express saddness to hear this. May this darkness in your life pass quickly to shine light on a much better year. God bless and help you and your family through the loss of a loved one and your job.

    Bill I am very sorry to hear about your brother.

    As far as the job, your skills are needed in many job sectors. You will find a good job and I hope you find one that kicks ass.

    Very sorry to hear all this, especially the passing of your brother. I pray that the peace that passes all understanding will be with you during this difficult time. I also pray that you will find an even better position than the one you had.

    Bill sorry for your loss. On the job front check Oracle to see what they have to offer some of what you described sounds similar to what my cousin does who works for them and majority of it is remote. He lives in the Charlotte area. Best of luck.

    So sorry for your loss Bill, I’ll keep your family in my prayers. Hopefully you can rebound quick, that is a good field to look for work in. I hope it leads to a big pay bump for you!!

    Dang Bill what a kick in the gut. Sorry for what your family is going thru.

    I'm always looking for labors/carpenters, but I'm sure it's not worth it for you to come all the way to MD to do that kind of work with the skill set you have. You will find something I'm sure.

    I love how we all come here for hunting, then life stuff happens and we all rally around with words of encouragement, empathy and support. I can tell you all that there is usually some additional actions that go on directly, behind the scenes so to speak, with members here to help out however one can. It's humbling sometimes.

    Not on stand but I'm scouting as I finish up closing blinds. I did behind house today. So so cold ! Never left low 20's. There were no new tracks of ANYTHING. I did find a trail with rubs where I'll utilize a stand next spring. Spring because it's also filled with turkey scratching some days old.
