For those who asked....

Pam,

So sorry it didn't work out for Brian. That really stinks and it does hurt when you get passed over.

Hang in there,

Teresa

I am sorry to hear that news. I was hoping for you guys to hear something positive. Everything happens for a reason........blah,blah, I know. But it's true and something will come his way. I hope he keeps looking.

Good for you for doing what he asks as far as him dealing with things. It's so hard to step back and do what they want or need when your fist instinct is to be right there at him to support him. Soemtimes we need to realize we all handle things differently and I am sure he appreciates you giving him that space he needs.

I wish him and you the best of luck with finding something else. It is tough times, and it's brutal out there.

Keep your head up!

So sorry to hear about what happened. Feeling bad for you and Brian also. I agree it is really hard to overcome your instincts to be right there, but I am glad you can step back and let him just deal. He knows you are there for him and he will open up when he is ready. Praying some opportunity presents soon that will be the right one. Praying for you guys to have the best.

Hi Pam - well, its all been said but I too feel bad for you and Brian...this sounded like a wonderful opportunity for him. And everyone is right - this economy sucks - and its hard not to take things like this personally. The only thing you can do right now is just be there for him - he'll come to you when he needs you to hold him - he knows you're there for him and that you support him.

Keep you chin up, kid - life will get better.

Pam...I'm sorry to hear this!!  Something WILL come along...it's all in the master plan, although, I know how hard it is.

Sorry about that buddy.  I hope he's feeling himself soon.

Sorry Brian is so bummed Pam, my hubby gets down like that too, it makes you feel useless, doesn't it?  You did everything you could.  He just needs to find his happy place again.   Obviously, something bigger and better is waiting out there for him.   (Those Dumbass people couldn't find their ass with two hands, obviously.      Their loss.

Pam, I am so truly sorry.  I was really hoping Brian would get the position.  Believe me, I know how tough it is out there trying to find a job as I am living it every minute.  It is incredibly frustrating and discouraging and I really hope that something comes through for Brian soon.  And I also completely understand how you feel -- I tend to want to be cuddled and loved when I'm upset too and it's so hard when someone you love and want to cuddle doesn't want that when they're upset.  I know you will be there for Brian in whatever way he will let you be and in his own way, I'm sure he will appreciate it...probably even more than you will realize.  Try to stay positive -- I know much easier said than done. 

Thinking of you both,
Lisa :)  

Sorry to hear about the job, I work at Grand View Hospital in Sellersville, PA which is not too far from Easton, we seem to be short staffed in the patient transport dept., I don't know for sure if we're hiring, but maybe he could check it out.
