I’m actually living this. I have been underemployed throughout this recession and it’s what happens when you have to take the lower end non-career path type jobs that are easily available. You barely DON’T make it . . .
I’m sorry to hear that. I hope you find something soon.
My Wife and I are barely keeping our noses above water, and the way things are going at work here, I don’t know if I’ll have a job in 6 months. I’ve been looking diligently for the last three months, but the only positions open are either for Doctors, over the road truck drivers or commission-only salesmen. There’s no way I could take a low wage job and not fall completely behind on my mortgage and loans.
If I lose my job, we’re sunk.
It describes us almost exactly.
