Recession


Dear Economy,

Please recover. I know it may take a little while, and realistically a couple of years, but I need me some work. Any work. Really.

Regards,

Laura

Can I tack my name on to the bottom of this letter? I'm going on week 3 of unemployment...which has been 3/4 panic inducing and 1/4 best vacation of all time, haha.

Hope your employment situation is looking brighter than mine :D

Employment at this point is part-time with odd jobs which feels about as stressful as being unemployed. I'm in the middle of week three of being unemployed or lightly employed, too. I spend my free time mostly worrying, cleaning, applying for jobs, and plotting ways to avoid insanity in the face of free time.

I'm pretty sure I was about one job interview away from having a full blown embolism the first week, but it gets easier to relax about the situation as the days tick away.

I'm thiiiiiis close to going door to door offering to mow lawns, ha ha.

Can we keep each other company in situations such as these? I know we're not alone. Literally, more than half of all the students I know are either unemployed or not able to get enough work in the jobs they have. It's terrible.
