Congratulations on your job! You clearly worked hard to obtain it and it warms my heart to hear that it is so fulfilling to your passions. I've been blessed with a good job which I landed just prior to my partner losing his and experiencing two-plus years of soul crushing unemployment. It is indeed a precarious existence for the uncredentialed. Thankfully I've been able to support us in relative comfort. I subscribed to your Stack specifically because of your series on unemployment and job searching in contemporary America, and I look forward to reading the continuation.
Thank you so much Jareth! I’m glad to hear you have the security of valuable work-it’s truly a blessing. My next ‘Job Search’ piece will explore the reality of being poor in America and the differences in outlook and values that I’ve seen between the working class and the ‘elites’. “The most exorbitant privilege one can have these days is the ability to play make-believe.” Thanks for your support.
