Today's lunchtime reading on CNN included an article that states that
the worst place to lose your job is Florida. They're got the highest
unemployment rate in the country.
What bothers me about this whole thing is that there's a big
difference between the job skills required for Technical Writing and
construction or the hospitality industry. I hate that what used to be
a white collar job is paying the same rate as blue collar jobs.
