sorry to hear youve been let go.

ive been in the same boat as you a few times and it doesnt get any easier.

if your fit enough to work then i dont see any problems.

it was only 4 weeks ago a friend of mine was found dead because he lost his and couldnt support his children.

no signs at all he just hung himself so whatever you do please talk to someone if it starts to get you down.

dont suffer alone.

good luck to you

I reckon there has to be and if you approach it that way then there will be! 50 isn't old these days, experience with a calm and balanced head can be a huge asset....
