This news doesn't have to do with the site...directly

[HaLo2FrEeEk]

Ok, so you've all voted (hopefully), and you (mostly) all said yes, you wanted me to bring the site back online. I would love this to be a happy occasion, a reuniting of sorts. This can't be the case, though.

As you all know, this site is not free. It's not expensive, by any means, it's actually quite cheap, but it's still not free. $10.95 a month is what I pay to keep this site running, donations help, in fact right now the site is payed through January, after that, though, I'll have to pick up the slack again. This would normally not be a problem, after all, what's $11 a month? Unfortunately, I lost my job tonight. My steady source of income has dried up and I don't think I can sustain this site past January if I haven't found another job by then.

You also surely all know that I have a donation fund setup where all payments will go straight to this site's bill. I currently have $33.95 in there, but like I said, that will get us 2 more months. I ask you this as a friend in need, not begging, no obligations, no requirements, but the continued survival of this site depends on you, the member's, contributions. Below is the link to donate, $11 will pay for one month, 2 $5 donations will almost pay for a month. It doesn't have to be a lot, no donation is too small or too big, at this point, I will accept what I can get. I hated the 2 weeks that this site was down, and I don't want it to happen out of my control.

Like I said, there are no obligations, you don't have to do anything, and I will not guilt the person who does not or can not do something, but if you can, it will be appreciated.

Donations can be made here:

Thank you in advance, all of you, for your continued support of this site, and the Infectionist community.

Long story. I had arguements with a few of the associates there and the last time it happened was just one time too many. What's funny is this last time, I didn't really do anything wrong, it was more just the fact that it involved me. I told him we needed to take it to the back, not talk about it on the sales floor, stuff like that, but he wouldn't. Still, everything happens for a reason, I know at a glance that working there has helped me because of how I responded when I got fired. I could have jumped up and yelled and gotten pissed off, but instead I sat there and took it, because I knew I deserved it.

At this point, today I'm going to just relax, tomorrow, I'll start looking for another job. I'm thinking Costco, or if I do Best Buy, it'll be part of the Geek Squad, I won't sell.

Update. I didn't get the job at Besy buy, or costco, or petsmart, or ablertsons, or gamestop, and I haven't called Safeway back yet. None of those places are hiring right now, it's the worst time of year to need to be hired. I'm stuck helping a friend of my dad's out with his christmas tree farm, it's not a lot of work, and it's not really hard, but it's manual labor still, and it's outside the whole time...it snowed today, that's how cold it was...All Day. The pay isn't great either, 7 hours got me $50, but I'm not going to turn my nose up at it, it's money.

I still wouldn't mind donations, but I understand if it can't happen. Poisonblood, I'd like to apologize to you again, you know why. Your mother actually emailed me to ask when, I told her the same thing I've said all along, and it's even worse now because of this.
