[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 691515, member: 11791"] I've been "downsized" more than once, and once even got to work with a job-search coach (part of what the downsizer paid for...) And they told us: Do NOT spend all day looking for work. It doesn't TAKE all day. Once you know where you should be looking, keep a list and go through that every morning. Then find ONE person in your network to be in contact with in person - a coffee or whatever - but it had to be a different person every day of the week. After that... go do something productive. Oh. 1) you have to have an organized approach - not sure your son has that part 2) you have to have a network of people - and J doesn't count 3) you have to be able to find something productive to do with the rest of the time - a major challenge, it appears. I know Lil. Where do you even start? [/QUOTE]
