Yep ... never saw that coming .. but then, who does?
It has been 6 months since I was "RIF'd" .. that is what they call a layoff at my old company, a "Reduction in Force".
Still no full time work and the vacation payout and severance are just about gone. The only reason that pot of money lasted this long was because there is unemployment insurance.
I'm not sure what today would look like if I didn't have that little bit of money coming in each week.
That's the idea behind insurance - you pay for it hoping it never gets used - but when you need it you are glad it is there. OH, you are glad!
