I was laid of 9 months ago, and it was tough luck, cuz I might have been
fired for bashing the manager with my keyboard had they ke^t me longer.
There is benefit money enough to avoid jumping on the next bad offer, so I
take my time (6 months were spent ciring the depression I suffered after
leaving the job, which was not due to the leaving) and I'll only accept the
offers that are OK.
So take your time as much as you can afford, and be positive about this
FREE time.
