Monkey see Monkey do!

[Hopefull1983]

So I work for one of the largest boat/yacht retailers in the world. As many of you may think, "Gee boat sales must be tough in this economy", you couldn't be any closer to the truth. As I've said in past posts my income is down 80% in comparison to the last 36 months which has undoubtedly forced me to file CH7.

The sad part is the company I work for just filed CH11 a few days ago! It's extremely sad, but it makes my choice to file CH7 seem more rational now.

The good news is, I just got a new job that will have a stable income I can count on every month. I still fall below the median for a single earner income in CA so my CH7 will not be influenced by this.

Any objections I get at the 341 I can certainly counter by showing them that I've gone BK because the company I worked for went BK

ha! i'm with ya - i contract for an airline who filed bk a while back. i'm not even in the 10th percentile as pay goes in the area for what i do; so my objections i'll handle similarly - tough market, the only job i could get was with a company that just came out of and will likely go back into bk. please pass the peas.

good luck with your filing!

Good luck to you both! We have a friend who works as a flight attendent at one of the airlines that's been in the news lately. When asked how she's handling it, she says that in terms of seniority the would have to lay off about 5000 to touch her. But she says she is taking nothing for granted.
