I just lost my job and I loved my job. However my husband complained that I worked to much and now hes upset that I lost my job. This had been brewing for a while now. And I seem to think it was a push to get me out the door because we were misrable with me working there. Now that my job is gone I feel like the world caved in and my husband is not helping. What do I do? My the Dental field is not so good right now.

What can I do next?

Can you file for unemployement until you can find something? Go to a temp agency to see if they can fit you in your field or another field.

I am really sorry about this. The same thing happened to me last year and I was pregnant. They laid off my entire office and then closed down. It sucks. Good Luck.

Hi L.,

I can imagine how you feel I was like that once, if only I had this opportunity of owning my own business back then, I wouldn't leave my children to anyone else's care but mine. Ooh, I was such an angry person when I was 22 years old, because I have 3 children to take care of and I lost my job from a downsize 1983 was the year and this was in the islands where I came from, which everything was so expensive. I suggest you write all of the things you are feeling now and set a place for it, whenever you go and try to find a job to be placed, if it is temporary it's okay, that way you have to look forward to have a paycheck and some of the time you will have for your children plus you can give me a call (wk:###-###-####(M-Th,7-11&1-4) and hm:###-###-####,(Fr-Su, 9-5)) to go see a business presentation and find out whether you will like it so you can start your own business and have more time for you and your family. How is that? For now the best thing you can go for is the temporary job because the job vacancies are now being frozen due to this recession, come to think of it even Ford will be laying off a lot of their employees according to the news yesterday. Hope you make time for this offer and I look forward to you being my business partner, since we did not meet or know each other yet, I would like you to check out my web portal at http://www.marketamerica.com/taimanao if you have access to the internet and see if you would like to have one just like it except it will be in your name and when you give me a call I will tell you where I live (although you may have an idea it's Phoenix, AZ). Have a great day!

Hi! So sorry for your current difficulties. Husbands can be funny, can't they? They want you home but they also want the income we bring in! I was in a little different situation than you because I quit my job to stay home with the children. But I needed something to do so I started a home business with AmeriPlan. It's a discount dental and medical benefits company so it might be right up your alley. It fills my day with work but allows me special time with my kids so they aren't in daycare. Also you have the option of being a provider rep (i.e. helping add new dentists) and they like people with your background for that. That's great extra income! You can learn more at www.myhomecareer.org. Good luck!
