Additional Information:
10/03 my position with International Paper was eliminated due to the decline in the paper industry and my low seniority level with the company. Between 11/03 and 11/04, I helped my husband promote his business (landscaping and home repairs) with advertising, business flyers and business cards while I was looking for another purchasing position.
My position as Plant Buyer with Webster Industries was a newly created position due to new business that Webster had recently acquired and business they expected to acquire in the near future. Unfortunately, they had several production qualality issues and consequently lost the new business they had obtained and a lot of the old business they already had. therefore, my job was eliminated in April of 2006. At that time, my Dad was terminally ill with cancer. My husband and I moved him in with us and I stayed with him 24/7 until he passed away in July. While I was with him, I studied the Alabama State Insurance class online and took my state board, which I passed. When my Dad passed, I went to work with Liberty National selling insurance.
