Lost my job due to COVID-19. Now what?
So I lost my well-paying job due to sweeping layoffs and I was cut loose completely. No furlough, no severance, just a short meeting where I was escorted by security and shown the door. Very unceremonious and very disrespectful for a person who’s been working there for two years. I had three weeks of paid leave saved up that I’ll never get since the lovely state of Michigan doesn’t require employers to pay out unused PTO.

And now Governor Bitchmer just locked down the entire stare for three more weeks. How in the hell am I going to be able to make ends meet if I can’t find more work? Every job opening I see that I’m qualified for has hundreds of other candidates outside of myself. The unemployment I get is only half of what I made and I’ve got a family to support. This whole freaking pandemic nonsense has ruined everything and with nothing open finding a job will be a real bitch.

I would accept another stimulus check but I don’t care for handouts. What I really want is a job! I want to work! The entire f’ing world has lost its mind over this scamdemic and now I’m one of its latest victims. So stupid.

I needed to rant about this because this is by far the DUMBEST and far-fetched nonsense I’ve ever seen.

Anyone else had their livelihoods ruined as well?

Funny you should ask. Everyone knew I was a republican and that I supported the President. It was a Chicago based company and LOTS of the top execs loved pushing that narrative we all know and hate. While I can’t say it was my views that got me the axe I suppose I can’t rule that out, either

Trump and Covid-19 are the easiest scapegoats when downsizing. Automation and Basic, Universal Income cryptically mined by "slave labor" will end hypocrisy.

I’ve been furloughed since March, I can’t tell you how many times I have applied to jobs. Hopeful I will get mine back, but until then...

Down size everything You have.
Purchase an RV.
Travel to a different State.
Stock up on Water and food.
Whatever savings You have convert to BTC, Gold, Silver. Purchase a weapon.
Think of what is taking place.

Re: Lost my job due to COVID-19. Now what?
Yup. I was making $130K/yr. Now I'm working as a pastry chef for $16/hr and a part time retail gig. Luckily I have no debt and the kids are mostly raised. Now I'm thinking about going to a grocery store or some other "essential" gig because both of my jobs will be gone if they lock down here again (and they probably will). If I was relatively sure Congress would get another stimulus going with enhanced unemployment, I wouldn't worry so much. But as things stand, I think I have to go for something essential...quickly.

Good luck. Everything is fucked and it's only going to get worse from here. Especially if that moronic pedophile succeeds in cheating his way into the Oval Office.

If you don't have another source of income (spouse) or family member to help you with money till the collapse reaches critical mass, you can get a (low paying job were you have to wear a mask.)

If you have money to live on, you can gather truth, and share it, and prepare for the Biblical Tribulation, that is close at hand.

If Food, Wood, Water, Shelter, Weapons and communications are all taken care of and you are way outside of a city populated area. I say Join the CoVid19 REBELS and Resist Tyranny by spreading Truth, and Preparing for Riots, Earthquakes and Power outages etc. etc. etc.

If you are reading this, you are the Resistance.

 Quoting: Nighthaven


Maximum unemployment in michigan is $362 a week, so if that's half what you made you can easily replace that job, and in the meantime you're getting paid to not work while you figure it out. Find side work for cash. Sell some old stuff. Make and sell masks, sell pies to your neighbors, rake leaves, chop and sell fire wood,etc. Take advantage of free local food pantries if needed.

Although if you aren't overly prideful or care what type of work you do l, there's always somewhere hiring. I saw help wanted signs in every single business that was open during the last shutdown.

Jobs are plentiful, if you are willing to work in fast food. Don't know what kind of job you had, OP, but there are companies who need help. Try the USPS, Fed Ex, or UPS. Start at the bottom and work your way into a good position. You future in not hopeless, but will be if you have a "woe is me" mindset.

Everybody should plan on losing their job. Plain and simple in this old world that nothing should be taken for granted. You were looking for your current job when it fell into your lap, it can happen you again.
