Top 5 Myths of Being Unemployed

4. You have no incentive to find work because government is paying you. Some people out there suggest that now that you’re unemployed you must be taking it easy since you have the security and comfort provided to you by an unemployment check. The glamorous life of an unemployed person is often summarized by a thoughtless comment that goes something like this – “well, it must be nice for you to stay home and relax a little.”Ok, breath now and once you gather enough strength to resist the urge to punch the person asking this question, ask him or her to consider the typical morning of a freshly unemployed person, known commonly as moocher a.k.a the VIP member of the 47% subculture. You wake up in the morning to that familiar rush of panic and anxiety, followed by a feeling of emptiness, worthlessness and mild depression that is quickly followed by the dreadful thought of having to go through your email box, again, to delete all those automated rejection letters. Yes, what pleasure cruise it is, so full of delightful enjoyments and endless relaxation. Yeah, right asshole. You go bananas about a week into this imagined paradise of yours. Being unemployed means you are now working alone, full time, with no pay to find a new job.
