    On the bright side you get to spend some time with your family during the holidays!

    That sucks, man. Plan accordingly, be frugal and make the best of your time off.

    Reminds me of all those wonderful years in the Operating Engineers, been there done that many times over. I miss running the machines but not the rigamarole.

    Sorry to hear that. On the other hand, you say "till end of January" so it sounds like you know that you WILL be getting income again and when it will start. That's something to be thankful for in today's environment.

    It sounds like a seasonal layoff, file for unemployment. it takes 5 week. By the time the Ump is approved, you will have found another job.
