Ah crap. I am so sorry. I have no advice to offer on the job front, but I can help with resume editing and the like if you need it.

Plus...**hugs**

Thank you!

I'll probably take you up on the resume thing. It's such a pain in the ass for me. I don't know why.

Thanks again!

On a completely unrelated note, someone in vintagehair uses your icon and every time I see it I think it's you. I'm like, "I didn't know Bean was interested in vintage hair styling!" and then I realize it's some else. : (

Thanks! I'm sure I will. I can't get much worse than where I was, atmosphere and stress wise.

Happy to help with the resume, but not familiar with the south. Appealing unemployment is usually fairly standard, and if they said they were laying you off, then it's straight forward. I hope you have something in writing?

A wrongful termination suit is difficult to prove unless you were discriminated against or harrassed. Laid off for any reason (except being in a protected class) is at the discretion of the employer unless you're in a union.

I'n sorry. :-(
