Much as I like to b*tch about greedy corporations, it sounds like the family can't afford the house. Sure, the Act mentioned says that they can't foreclose while he's in Iraq, but doesn't that just mean it'll be postponed till he gets back? It's pretty clear that there's a paperwork screwup somewhere, because if they knew he was on active duty they wouldn't be doing this. Seems like that to me, anyway. Now that there's been news coverage, I'm sure the matter will be resolved.

But when he gets back, he should get more compensation (my nephew got some anyhow and recently was able to sign up for some other funds) plus he will go back to firefighter pay. Big difference. >> Much as I like to b*tch about greedy corporations, it sounds like the >> family can't afford the house.

I hope so.

That guy is probably earning about half of what he was getting as a firefighter, and is probably doing the same work. Before Rob was diagnosed with his brain tumor, he had a standing job offer with a aviation company that contracts to fix helicopters for the US government. He would have been earning $18/an hour to start, about what he was getting from the Army including all bonuses, and get full medical coverage, bonuses and so forth. To top it all off, he'd have been working a 40 hour week and have weekends off, unless there was a major emergency. Pam S. Who hopes that Wells Fargo (whom our mortgage is with BTW) gets their act together and lets these people work something out. >> Much as I like to b*tch about greedy corporations, it sounds like the >> family can't afford the house.

I don't doubt that the pay this guy is receiving isn't enough to pay for the house. I'm just wondering if it will really help the family if WF waits until he gets back to foreclose.

If Wells Fargo is willing to work with them, I'm sure there are groups that are cropping up right now, offering to help this family. Sometimes media stinks are helpful. It's also possible that this family is caught in one of the same cluster f*cks that caught us during Desert Shield/Storm. Rob's unit was sent to Saudi Arabia from Germany. The unit that handled the pay for his unit was called Klaiber Concern. Rob's unit called them the Keebler Concern as it was manned by elves who could do all sorts of magical things to mess up your pay. In two years, Rob's pay was correct 2 times. We received a check for some of the mix up after we got to Ft Bliss. We never did get it all straightened out. Pam S.

It's good to know we're taking such good care of the people risking their lives overseas. *sigh* Signaturemonique, who spoils Oscar unmercifully pictures: http://www.bounceswoosh.org/rpca On Tue, 01 Mar 2005 17:54:56 GMT, "Magic Mood Jeep©" <nobody@nowhere.net> wrote: >http://www.theindychannel.com/family/4241413/detail.html > >You know what this tells me? > >It tells me to *NOT* do business with Wells Fargo. But we're not at war - technically, anyway. Just another reason not to allow the President to wage war without Congress actually declaring it. >--? >The ONE and ONLY >lefthanded-pathetic-paranoid-psychotic-sarcastic-wiseass-ditzy former-blonde >in Bloomington!
