Misternatural 0 #8 February 8, 2007 My career as a delusional, binge drinking, talk show host was brief. Now I am self employed- which is almost like being unemployed except you write yourself tiny checks every so often and hand out impressive looking home made business cards....mostly to your friends.Beware of the collateralizing and monetization of your desires.

BillyVance 34 #9 February 8, 2007 Originally unemployed by circumstance, I have been unemployed by choice for some time. It's just more fun to be a Mr Mom at home and make the wife work. Really, the main reason is I would have had to take a big pay cut if I got a new job, so we elected to keep my wife's job and pay.

Snowwhite 0 #10 February 8, 2007 Every decent weather day from mid Feb to Mid December I work. 7 days a week, almost all hours that the sun shines. So right now in dismal weather I am working a minimal number of hours and feel worthless, like I am not carrying my weight. So I guess I am unemployed by circumstance.

So I spent almost 8 months semi-pleasantly unemployed recently. Went to lots o boogies, jumped my ass off, partied with friends all over the place! I had a blast! It was like summer break all over again! Then those fuckers that were foolish enough to actually loan me money for shit started complaining about some bill or other, so I'm unhappily back at work.
