I have reservations about doing work for them, but I'm not vindictive. I'm giving it consideration. But not at the same price as before. One reason I'm considering it is ....... I could afford more excesses for my SRT-6 (future 8?) Should I insist they fire the axe murderer? Nah, not my concern. It will happen in good time.

Glad you posted this Les. I too have been where you were. And in fact, just did it again. I sold out to the company I was working for. Pennies on the dollar, but they hired me at more than I was making for myself, bennies pkg, and all. Sent me on a vacation...etc....etc...I just decided to get debt free. Backing off on spending....increasing my work hrs at both jobs...until I have everything paid off. Once all that is done, and things look bright again, I will jump back in both feet...it's good to be old sometimes...
