Recently, I lost my job due to cut backs and slow down due to the recession. This was out of the blue and unexpected. Now I am out of work, no money and very concerned about how to make it through these tough times. I have 1 son and he is 12 years old. We have suffered through tough times before, but I am affraid that this year will be the worst yet. Gas prices and higher costs of food this year has created a downward spiral that has snowballed into deep debt. I am willing to relocated for work if I necessary. I have over 15 years as an executive administrator, I have an associates degree in management and I am short 30 credits to get my bachelors degree. I have worked since the age of 14 and I know what is like to work for what I want. I have put in the necessary work and I just need a break. I don't want my son to think that working hard doesn't payoff. I know bad things happen to good people, but this was not what I was expecting. I lost my highest paying job in 2006 due to the state cut backs and exhausted my savings to keep a roof over our head and day-to-day living expenses. Now, once again I am out of work and no resources. Life is such a challenge and I am willing to go that extra mile to maintain my family. I know that things are tight right now for everyone, but if someone has a job that needs to be filled by someone who has a variety of skills including event coordinating, please do not hesitate to contact me. Donations are also welcome, but I really need to WORK! Coleman Family; P O Box 35873, Detroit MI, 48235 or send an email to: blkdymond@comcast.net
