HelpMe - Congrats on the new higher paying job!
Did you ever get a cash for keys offer for the house? Probably time to just get out to avoid eviction at this point. Good luck finding a new place. It'll work out because you'll work hard at making it right ;)

helpme, good for you - you still "Love LA!" (forgive me - had to say it!) I'm a bit of a same situation - good job, decent pay, hell of a commute - 2 hrs AM about 1.5hrs pm in stop and go...BUT what the hey!!!!
(Can you tell FM where they can go for a while, or are they telling you that you need to go...)Leave a comment:

IamOld, you remember my story. Remember all the people telling me I had to leave California. Well I didn't. In fact, as soon as I landed the bad job, I started getting more people calling me for interviews. So the drive is still really bad in CA traffic, but I will be moving about 20 minutes closer, which helps some. But I am so grateful to have a high paying job and with a stable company, that I will put up with the traffic, just to work. I am now searching for a place to live fast and furious as Fannie Mae is pushing me really hard to leave as they are preparing to evict me.Leave a comment:

My update on jobs and moving
Hello everyone, I have been away for awhile, but I wanted to post something positive to motivate all of you who are unemployed, bankrupt, foreclosed, etc.
After being a 99er, I finally found a job, but it was with a very unstable company. People were quitting or being fired day after day. I knew this was a unstable situation, so I worked long hours, drove in long traffic jams, but still did phone and live interviews and job searches with my free time (those who say unemployed are lazy are full of you know what).
Well I finally landed a new job with a very stable company and paying more than I have ever made in my life. Hey that degree finally paid off too.
So now I have a couple weeks before I start, so I quit the other company so I can take this time to full time job search and pack. Fannie Mae is pushing me fast and they are about to file an eviction process. I am mostly seeing crappy places, but a few decent places have turned up and I have a couple nice places I am about to visit next.
For those who are unemployed or those who believe and vote to cut off unemployment extensions, remember, there are millions just like me that will eventually pay very high taxes to support our economy, if you just give them time. For those who are unemployed, keep interviewing, consult if you can, take on non-profit projects, keep on looking and interviewing, and eventually you will get your reward.
