If your credit or debit card has a PIN (personal
identification number), memorize it. Skip easily
recognizable PINS such as the last four digits of your
Social Security number, your house number, or family
member birth dates.

Amajor challenge when losing a job is to move ahead and find new work, while trying to
process what happened.
These steps can help jumpstart your job search:
Get the word out.
In addition to getting moving as soon as possible, the most important
thing to do is communicate. Let everyone know you’re looking for a job.
Network. The more people who know you’re looking for work, the better, and don’t forget
former co-workers. Experts agree that the best way to find a new job is through personal and
professional contacts. Job seekers have a much easier time job hunting if they keep current
a copy of their contact database and personal files.
Establish a daily routine. The job hunt is your new job.
Be flexible. Finding new work will be easier if you are. For example, consider alternatives
to one traditional job, such as a couple of part-time jobs.
Consider temp work, especially if you need work now. Some income is better than none
at all, especially if you need it to keep you or your family financially stable. Don’t make the
mistake of holding out for your dream job or for a job with a salary that’s unrealistic in the
current economic environment. Besides bringing in some much-needed money, you can try
to work on weeknights and weekends, leaving time for job hunting during the day. It also can
be a good way to position yourself for a full-time job.
Consider retraining or going back to school, especially if the hiring outlook in the field
you came from is bleak. If you’re deficient in a basic skill, many state employment services
offer computer classes, for example.
Remember that perseverance and fortitude may be tough to measure, but they’re
indispensable if you’re going to be successful in finding new work, especially if nothing
breaks right away. Don’t forget to take some time for yourself too. Find some balance, and
keep your mind engaged by continuing to read publications related to your field of expertise
as well as recreational sources.

in even deeper trouble financially. We can help you through this difficult time. Call us today

Dyersburg Credit Union members are now signed up for additional savings! Just log into your own Six Flags site to buy tickets with
substantial savings off the main gate price. This online benefit program offers not only substantial savings, but allows you to “print and go”
so you have your ticket in hand when you get to the park with no waiting in the line to purchase tickets. To access your special tickets,
click the link below, then log into the site with the username and password provided.
Members may still purchase the tickets at the Credit Union office for $24.99, just like last year. But the online option is available if
you decide at the last minute to go to Six Flags and didn’t have a chance to get the office to make the purchase.
The online tickets are still the $24.99 price but a $5.00 processing fee will be added by Six Flags
for this option. It is still reduced from the gate price and just an online service they now offer credit
union members.
