With so many folks being laid-off and/or losing their jobs altogether, including many Minglers, I realized we have a great resource we haven’t even tapped into...each other.

Along with the difficult task of finding employment, I know there are immediate basic necessities that must be met in the interim. With that in mind, I’ve complied a list of web sites/resources that might be helpful.

I work at home as a Medical Transcription. At the end of the list I’ve provided the names of three legitimate Medical Transcription Corporations I know are hiring. Two I have worked for and one I presently work with.

I have also included a couple of resources with information on writing a resume’.

Please join me in providing other resources available that you are aware of in your area or nationwide.

Please post here the type of employment you are seeking and perhaps another Mingler can hook you up with some leads you hadn’t considered, and/or if re-location is an option for you.

If you are aware of employment opportunities in your area a Mingler might be interested in, please post them here.

Please help me in brain-storming this idea. If you have any suggestions as to how we might additonally assist one another, please post your thoughts here.

A friend of mine gets the monthly food deal from angelfoodministries, she says its a real good deal.

This is a wonderful post! {{{lilbug}}}

I think this is a wonderful idea.. thank you for thinking of and posting it.. bless you

lilbug

I get it too. It's a good deal and they have a variety of packages to suit your needs.

I don't know what this means.

I will do what I can Buggy Baby....

but, I can only do so many women per day.

I will give it my best....but between work and my 2 hour sleep requirement....my resources are limited.

Angel Food Ministries is popular at churches in my area.

You do not have to be low income to participate in the program.

however, they don't really offer a vegetarian option. at least, they didn't use to.

Thanks Lilbug! So thoughtful of you!

I'm sure many will find this helpful!

They do have all vegetable and/or fruit packages.

Just trying to help out.

Lol... it means I don't have time to read through this in depth right now so I am 'tagging' it so it shows up on 'My topics' and I can read more later
