Overview

No matter how well (or not) the economy might be doing, every year thousands of people in different industries face layoffs and job termination. It's hard to understand this particular pain until you've gone through it. For some, loss of income threatens their ability to meet basic needs. Even those with a savings cushion face uncertainty compounded by helplessness and shame. Friends want to offer support but don't know how. They might try to offer it over a restaurant meal that costs money you aren't making. They offer advice that doesn't resonate, saying ""at least now you have time to hike, party, explore your city, or read self-help books."" When you are jobless, you can sometimes barely read a sentence without thinking of your failure or go somewhere without worrying about how your future self could afford it. Job hunting advice never touches on the deep dread and isolation one endures. Above all, what people in this situation need is to feel connected. That's what this book offers: validation and reassurance. Whether given as a gift by a friend or purchased by those who have experienced job loss themselves, it reflects universal emotions and shows the reader that they aren't failures, aren't hopeless, and above all aren't alone.
