So...I am getting laid off fellas. Looks like theyre gonna close the doors probably for good. Got a decent severance package though and my boss is gonna sell me one of the vans or trucks. He also spoke with our main lumber providers owner beforehand and has at least 1 lead for me for a Superintendent job for a smaller builder. Still trying to digest this and formulate a plan...i just got home from his house. Ive got plans with my daughter tonight too. So I have to be in ship shape in about 4 hours so that she has no idea. This situation isnt hers to worry about or even know about until I land another job if I can help it. Appreciate yall. Might not be back on today/night but I am OK and thankful for you guys.
Sorry marcus.

sounds like they tried to do right by you and didn't stick you completely out on your own.

I am the boro and the rain gage measured 5" on Friday night and another inch on Saturday.... but that is all so far for July IIRC. I live next to the Stones and it was pretty low before the rain. June and May were wet tho (especially on the night of the AC/DC show)
Those 2 days accounted for almost an entire year's worth of average rainfall in Phoenix.

This is a new "screw you" that I had never heard of until I was this old.

"Congress created a remedy in bankruptcy that is free of guilt or wrongdoing and that simply says that if you got paid in the 90 days before the bankruptcy you have to give it back so it can be equally distributed amongst all creditors unless you meet one of these exceptions, which are primarily that they were paid in the ordinary course or that they were in exchange for new value provided."

So we have to return $21k to a client (the BR Trustee) that filed for bankruptcy even though they still owe us north of 75K and we miiiiiight get back around 10k.
That doesn't sound like anything new. It's called a clawback, and it's been around for a long time in bankruptcy cases. It does suck in a major way though.

Give it to them and then file for bankruptcy.

Damn. Sorry to hear that, Marcus. Good luck. I'll be praying for you.
