I am proud to call you my friend.

Being aware of what was coming and making plans for it are signs of an intelligent man.
I went through something similar in 2005 after some big a$$ storm named after a woman came though this part of Louisiana. I worked my butt off with the boss and we were back in operation 6 weeks after the storm but I saw the writing on the wall when the boss and I was at each others throat 3 or 4 times a week.
Anyway, I made plans, dipped into the savings and set up my own freelance business a month before I went off the payroll. Instead of a loss of income, I'm actually making 15k a year more - and paying the taxes to prove it.
The key was recognizing a change was coming and making plans for it.

 I have to agree with Scott.  And you are a stand up guy Chas, the other two hopefully realize what you did for them and can PIF someday.

Good luck, brother.  Much respect for taking the hit over the other two guys who needed the job more desperately.  A true selfless act.  Hope you find something soon.
