In one case, an assignment lasted 3 weeks - 3.FUCKING.WEEKS. before the subcontractor i worked for lost their govt contract. No one's job is safe anymore.

Not exactly a terrible situation. |

Date: May 10th, 2015 12:43 AM Author: primrose hominid Hell no I pray I'll get fired. If I ever were fired I'd probably freak out but on a day to day basis getting fired sounds amazing. Going to work everyday blows. I value my free time so much that it's a giant silver lining to being fired. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2876248&forum_id=2#27858495) |

Date: May 10th, 2015 12:45 AM Author: judgmental appetizing garrison I did lose it all. I live in constant fear that I'm never going to claw my way out of it. It feels like quicksand -- the more you try to escape, the deeper you become ensnared. I'm pretty just a mess of occasional drinking binges (which at least has supplanted former nightly binges), depression, and anxiety/paranoia.

Date: May 10th, 2015 12:49 AM Author: judgmental appetizing garrison To be fair, nothing really but a shitty car and over six figures of law school debt.
But I did have a solid job, good dating life, and was able to avoid falling underwater in debt and avoid living with parents.
Now it's nothing but constant letters and calls from collectors, an even shittier car that I want to paint yellow after Saul Goodman, and living with parents.

Date: May 10th, 2015 12:57 AM Author: judgmental appetizing garrison Been unemployed for over six months now, though occasionally I'm able to pick up some small side legal work for a check or two.
Have not gone out on a single date since unemployed.
Have had a few job interviews, without ultimate success. Around a week ago had a second interview for a very promising job, but pretty sure I bombed it. Barely got any sleep; looked tired and hungover; wasn't sharp. Felt paranoid.
Got a letter from the IRS today and can't even open it.
Just have to keep plugging away and sending resumes out. |
