Sorry guys and gals. This is horrible news on top of even worse news.
Worked for a company (non-aviation) that shut down. I learned that when a company permanently lays off more than 60% of there employees, you qualify for retraining benefits. So, if you always wanted to finish a college degree, pick up another rating or whatever, check with your state for how to qualify. In Texas they offered me $80k towards a degree.
