Well if Obama expands the government as much as many fear and many hope he will, you can always get a government job.

[JSojourner]

Mod,

I am so sorry to hear it.  I wish you all the best and hope this bad news actually turns out to be good when you land a better job.  You're a good guy -- you certainly don't deserve this!

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

Perhaps Mr. Obama will give you a nice, high paying green collar job.

[Lief 🗽]

Maybe you'll get to build roads.

FOR AMERICA.

[Jake]

Are you the one who works in publishing? My cousin did as well; emphasis on did.

Move to a state which is big government/liberal then get a government job there(my planned course of action post-graduation)

You already live in such a state...

For that matter so does Mr. Moderate.

[Smid]

Mate, I'm really sorry to hear this. I hope you find something new, better, and soon.

Which leaves just the second part of the plan.

Mr. Moderate, what was your income before being laid off?

I think the best solution to your problem (and the problem that it causes for the economy as a whole) is a generous dole, to basically replace most of your income with government payments.

[Јas]

Damn.
Best of luck Moderate.

Government is actually shrinking up here in Massachusetts for lack of money.  We're talking about laying off teachers and police officers.  Besides, all my government experience involves Mitt Romney and the Massachusetts GOP, which has had enough problems with voter-induced layoffs recently.

If you consider unemployment a generous dole, then count me in!  Half salary plus 90% of my cobra premium to sit around and play video games all day.

You guys are rolling in the dough compared to the California state government. We might not get our tax refunds for a while.

So long as the Unemployment Fund is still flush.

I'm sorry to hear the best of luck to you with finding a new job.

[Ban my account ffs!]

I'm sorry to hear about that.. don't let the stress of it boil up inside.  Just let it all out...

Hopefully you can find a new job soon.

Well that sounds great, though I assume you couldn't live for long on 1/2 your salary.  I for one find it impossible to live on my salary.
