Sam was a sensible thirty-five-year-old married man with three children.  He recently lost his job of 10 years when the manufacturing company he worked for moved their entire operation to another state.  He was offered a position if he relocated, but he didn’t want to leave his parents and his friends.  As a result, he stayed at his current residence.

Sam knew that he was facing financial difficulties when he couldn’t find employment.  Sure, he worked as much as he could doing odd jobs whenever he could but he realized that he needed full-time employment to pay his bills.

As a result of not being able to find full-time work, Sam started to get depressed and similar to many individuals who face serious issues, he tried to find some relief by drinking.

It didn’t take long, however, for Sam to experience one of the negative effects of alcohol, namely that drinking was fairly expensive and was causing him to spend money on booze instead of necessities for his family.  To his credit, however, Sam rather quickly got a handle on his problem drinking by substantially cutting back on his alcohol intake.  Once he addressed his drinking problem, moreover, he found that he could put forth a more honest effort to find full-time work.

After attending a resume writing, interviewing skills, and an employment workshop at the local library, Sam applied for and was hired for a position in his area of expertise that actually paid more per hour than what he had been making in his previous job.  When Sam got his job, he and his wife went out to celebrate.  Life was good once again!
