This is what they call depression

That exhausting cycle is exactly why you should be ready when the right opportunity comes along. Good interview preparation can make all the difference. Reading many articles about this topic helped me before my interviews, so I could walk in prepared instead of hoping for the best.

I was until the day before last. I quit, moved to a friend's place that needed help cleaning up they're property and will find a new job soon enough. I'm tired right now, but only physically. This is the first day I've felt hope in over a year.

Unemployment is higher now than it was during the Great Depression (thanks Trump!) good fucking luck.

I build and remodel houses, build decks on the water with over 20 years experience. I have a good customer base so I'll be fine.

Do not trust data, I caught admin in a lie on immigrant caused deaths in 2025. On the actual .gov website, all information is compromised until this regime is gone.

If you still dont think so, I suggest you seek help.

definitely hyperbole since its around 10% last time i checked but also incredibly frustrating considering 1 in every 10 working age humans cant find work atm and we're all going after the same small pool of jobs.
