hello again. get ready for something.

unemployment item: STEREOTYPES!

so, i was on the radio a few days ago.

i had my alarm set to the radio, and as it happened they were talking about the economy when i woke up. i hopped to my feet and called in, and got on the radio saying i had been unemployed for a number of months. and that it was tough. much tougher than i thought it would be. and one thing i hoped that this recent economic trial would do would be to shatter the myths of the jobless: wake up at noon, have no drive, a tick on society’s understanding.

this is not a choice.

waking up at 8:00am everyday and looking for a job for 8 hours yields no accomplishment. it’s unrelentingly monotonous. it’s boring as shit.

saying you have the drive to get out of a situation is one thing, but when the chips are down… it’s a different matter.

it’s a tough situation the jobless are in and it’s a gross little predicament the economy has gotten itself into. no ones fault, and no ones to blame. but we’re all in this together. so don’t hate. regulate.
