No shite!
Just lost my job (engineer) last week, but I’m one of those “white privileged” types so never mind because I don’t count. By the way, where’s all of my free Sh!t?! (Money, food stamps, rent, Obama phone, health care, et al?). Oh never mind. I forgot that I’m white. I don’t count.
When I moved to Texas after Katrina I was laughed out of the building when I inquired about food stamps.
Sorry to hear that.
Just don't pull a "Falling Down" type reaction.
You can get breakfast at Micky D's 24/7 now. All kidding aside I hope you get back on your feet real soon.
Sorry you lost your job, I know that situation. I lost a job several years ago when our contract was terminated. I quickly found something else, but the experience was a kick in the gut. Hang in there. Unfortunately, you are correct. The government does not care about you, because White Men are the enemy.
Add in single white male and it makes it worse.
Hope you find a job soon.
As a female nearly 60, having only a HS education, kids grown and out of the house, husband dropped dead of a sudden heart attack. Not even Walmart would look at my application. My only work history was factory, making wire harnesses in my late 20’s-30’s. Stay at home mom. By 57 had arthritis of the hands so bad the obsolete secretary training I had in HS wasn’t worth a hoot. No work history for 20+ years hurt any meaningful earning job prospects.
Now if you are over 40 it’s hard to find a comparable job.
