[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 280988, member: 1991"] Sorry that this happened. One (small) consolation - getting another job, at least losing this one won't go against him. So many people have lost their jobs through no fault of their own, that any prospective employer is not going to worry about even a long period of "out of work". But given his depression plus the need to keep occupied, can you manufacture some volunteer work for him, to keep him functional? It could even lead to a job opportunity ifhe's lucky. And even if he's not - next job interview he goes for, when they ask what he's been doing - ANY volunteer work he's done will make him a standout candidate against the others, even if it's volunteering in a very different area to where the job would lead. I have some ideas if you like. Marg [/QUOTE]
