(re:
JeanieS’s layoff
): Jeanie. When these types of events happen to us, one needs to figure
out how to make lemonade out of lemons. Set up an office, of sorts, at
home, and sell your skills on a part time basis or something like that.
Work on a selective basis and as a contractor. If you are not a real
‘employee’, you might find you get more work, on your own terms, maybe
even from the previous employer. Your net income would likely go up
without the employee deductions. Or, start an internet business while
you have the ‘downtime’. Good luck.
Question: Have you ever had to make lemonade out of lemons as a result of an ordeal that life tossed at you? Tell us about it.
