Ruben sorry man.

Are there any other fields you can jump into?

Back in 01 after the events of 9/11 I was let go from the banking firm I was working at(perhaps this was the real beginning of our recession). I decided to switch fields and area of work. Fast foward 8 years I'm in automotive engineering and apart of a race team. I'm not making as much as I used to at the bank, but I do enjoy the work a lot more.

Take a break think about where you want to be within the next 5 years of your life and find a way to get there.

Hang in there man.

I thought a lot of companies did budget cuts on severance packages?

Plus I think it depends on what type of company ruben worked for

WOW Ruben sorry to hear that....

Well Worldpac has a few openings but it's mainly driving and delivering parts... We might have a job like Mikes opening up but thats about 1-2 months down the line if that gets approved.

What type of Cad design did you do? what industry? my friend who i used to part time for might need some one to do his Cad work. Since i don't do his stress tests on the designs he is doing what i did for him, He won't have time to do the CAD work.
