Job Hunting sucks

All right, here's the deal.  I've worked for the same company for over 15 years.  In all that time, I hadn't even submitted an application anywhere else because I have loved my job and the people I work with, and made a decent living without having the boss looming over my shoulder.  I set my own schedule, pretty much, had a new car every 18 months I could use for personal use for $160 a month, and the work was challenging and fun.  Yes, fun.  About a year and a half ago, the company was bought out and taken private.  The new owner is egomaniacal, secretive, and a, well let's just say he believes a contract is written in stone and the stone don't break.  So I'm not real happy with the change, but the job is still fun.  A week ago, I get a call from my supervisor at 8:00 in the morning.  The exact wording has become a blur, but the gist was this is your last day with the company, I spent the night in your town and I'm coming to your house to pick up your stuff.  Well, now, over the years the line between my stuff and the company stuff has become a bit blurred so I tell him a need some time to seperate it.  I get one hour.  After 15 years, I get one hour.  The company let go 17 people in the field, most of them with as many or more years of service than I had.

It's not all bad.  The severance package will tide me over for about 3 months, and if I find a job shortly, I can replace the company car with no problem.  The thing is, I"m spending about 3 hours a day job hunting.  I'm sending resumes to everything, from wildly overqualified to wildly underqualified, trying to get an interview, or just some response.  So far, nothing except one very nice guy who said I was wildly underqualified.  About one more week of this, I'm going to get a complex.

Sorry, nothing profound here, just needed to write it down somewhere and I know many of you have gone through this before and I knew you'd understand.  On the plus side, that gold cross in CoD4 has never seemed closer.
