Coloradohill - Thank you, I will keep you posted. The restructure was unavoidable due to loss of business and I volunteered - No kids or obligations other than my wife (She was supportive of my decision) Co-workers have small children, trying to hit the retirement age etc so it was for the greater good of my peers. All good, I am hoping to begin looking in a month or so for a new gig. Your perseverance got you through. Like they say "tough times do not last just tough people do".
