Now my severance is exhausted, as is my unemployment, and I am scrambling every day for work.

Notice, he did not scramble for work while the unemployment checks rolled in. We are subsidizing our high unemployment rate.

I did not take it that day at all. I think he is saying he is still scrambling. Based on his article, I don’t get the impression he wasn’t trying earlier.

That said, he should have considered finding another field.

Exactly. He states in the article:

all the weekly logs of jobs that I applied for in order to qualify for unemployment - three jobs every week during two years of federal unemployment, then four jobs every week during six months of Washington State unemployment.

Who knows what he could have accomplished if he didn't stop at the minimum?

Why should it? Did you notice it received $367.00 this check, which was $160 less than it usually got? It was getting about $2300 a month with no taxes, no driving, no clothing expense. It had it made. Maybe it is time I loose my job.
