    I’ve been unemployed since November. It was a time that should have been really happy, and it was for a while, but mostly it’s been the exact kind of stress described by Sunil here.

    I start a new job tomorrow morning, it’s only a few months contract, but it’s something.

      Good luck man. Being in the job seeking grind is soul crushing. People forget how slow, painful and dehumanizing it can be. Silly tests, multiple interviews and referees.

      Remember you are more experienced than you are one day ago. Add this current contract to your resume and continue seeking.

    Iv’e been “unemployed” since 2000. Best time ever.

    I’d seriously have to consider suicide if I had to go back to work becase of some fuck up on my part.
